Business question from Robert Smith (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 22 July 2010. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

The Leader of the House will know how important the post office network is to many of our constituents, particularly those receiving benefits. The Department for Work and Pensions has put out for tender on the cheques received by those who cannot cope with the card account. Will he ensure that we get a statement before the recess from the DWP on the access criteria it will use in judging that, so that those people can still use the post office network to access their benefits?
