Proceeding contribution from Michael Connarty (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 27 October 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Postal Services Bill.


Postal Services Bill

The hon. Lady is moving on from mutualisation of the post office network. I thought she might ask the Minister where the guarantees will be when the Post Office is mutualised or split off. I believe that we have to put in £270 million at the moment to keep the network alive. I can see no guarantee under the Bill that the Post Office will be supported. How could mutuals find that £270 million to keep the network intact?
