Business question from James Brokenshire (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 2 March 2006. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
May I press the point about the future of post office services? I am disappointed by the right hon. Gentleman’s apparent reluctance to grant Government time for a debate on the subject. In the past two years 2,500 sub-post offices have closed, five of them in my constituency. This is a serious issue, which is of real concern to communities throughout the country, and the change that the Government have made in the Post Office card account has thrown further doubt on the future of local post office services. We need a debate; may we have one soon, please?
