Proceeding contribution from Jim Shannon (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 November 2023. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Post Office Services: Edinburgh West.
Post Office Services: Edinburgh West
The hon. Member for Edinburgh West (Christine Jardine) referred to elderly people and those who are isolated in the community and do not have access to online services. Those are the people who tell me they need their post office. There are many of them. I think the Minister would probably agree that there is a duty on the Government to try to encourage the renewal of those contracts come next March, and to ensure that the people we represent are looked after.
