Supermarkets Closing Post Offices

EDM number 1421 in 2003-04, proposed by Parmjit Dhanda on 30/06/2004.

That this House views with concern the closure of post offices which arises directly from the takeover of supermarkets, for example in the case of Morrisons' decision to close the post office currently located in the Safeway store in Abbeydale, Gloucester; and urges supermarkets to consult Post Office Ltd, Postwatch, honourable Members and local communities before closing local post offices.

This motion has been signed by a total of 45 MPs.
