POST OFFICES IN WALES

Early day motion 1054, tabled 26 February 2008 by Lord Touhig (Labour). Signed by 29 members.

That this House regrets the proposed closures of sub-post offices in Wales; believes that sub-post offices provide much needed services which should be expanded; is concerned that the well-being of many people will be harmed if the closures go ahead; and calls on Post Office Ltd to abandon the closure programme and work with interested parties to grow and develop the post office network.
