Motion Text

That this House deeply regrets the trend in post office closures across communities; calls on the Government to review its policies on payment of benefits and pensions and to enable post offices to provide full banking services, as these policies are causing many post office closures; notes that in Castle Point, these recent closures have taken place and three more closures are now being considered and that this is typical of many other communities; and calls on the Government to review its policies to prevent the damaging loss of post offices.
