POST OFFICE STRIKES

Early day motion 1967, tabled 19 July 2007 by Daniel Kawczynski (Conservative). Signed by 25 members.

That this House is extremely concerned by the ongoing threat of strikes by Post Office staff; urges the Government to work closely with the Communications Workers Union and Royal Mail to ensure the dispute is settled as quickly as possible; and asks the Government to review the postal market restrictions on Royal Mail, which force an unfair disadvantage on other companies entering the UK market and prevent Royal Mail from expanding services offered through post offices with the intention of improving their commercial viability.

Signatures by party: Labour 14, Conservative 7, DUP 3, Plaid Cymru 1.
