Post Office Consultations During Recess

EDM number 2043 in 2007-08, proposed by Michael Clapham on 15/07/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Postal services and Service industries.

That this House notes with great concern that around five and a half million people across the UK will be denied a voice in Parliament on Post Office closures because proposed closures will be announced during, or on the day of, the Parliamentary summer recess; recognises the vital service provided by local Post Office branches; believes that all constituents, not just some, should be able to have their concerns raised in the House; and urges Royal Mail to reconsider its timetable for announcements.

This motion has been signed by a total of 47 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
