Proceeding contribution from Alan Reid (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 February 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Royal Mail.
Royal Mail
The Minister is right to say that we have to expand financial services at post offices, but I draw his attention to the recent announcement by National Savings & Investments that holders of individual cash savings accounts will no longer be able to make cash deposits over the counter at post offices. Surely that is a retrograde step, taking yet more business away from the Post Office. Will the Minister contact NS&I and reverse that decision?
