Post Office Network In Greater Manchester

EDM number 1513 in 2005-06, proposed by John Leech on 30/01/2006.

That this House notes that Post Office Card Accounts generate millions of pounds of income for post offices every month; further notes that some post offices in Greater Manchester will struggle to survive without this income if the Government fails to renew the contract; further notes many vulnerable people will be forced to travel to town centres to access money if local post offices close; and is concerned that this will have a detrimental impact not only on the post office network in Greater Manchester, but also on the viability of other local shops which rely on passing trade generated by people collecting benefits and pensions from their local post office.

This motion has been signed by a total of 33 MPs.
