Post Office Transaction Card

EDM number 1942 in 2007-08, proposed by Alan Meale on 02/07/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Postal services and Service industries.

That this House is concerned about rumours that the Government is considering withdrawing its support for the Post Office's transaction card and instead awarding the contract to another supplier, a scenario which, if enacted, would inevitably lead to further local Post Office closures; and calls upon the Government to desist from taking such a direction and presses instead for it to find new ways of helping and promoting the Post Office network for all those who are dependent upon the essential services it provides to the UK and its citizens.

This motion has been signed by a total of 58 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
