Post Office Services

Posted on:: Thursday, 25th January 2007 at 12:17pm

You can help inform our response to the DTI's consultation paper on Post Office Services.

We're pleased the Government has recognised the important social and economic role of post offices. We also welcome the commitment to continue with a new Post Office Card Account after 2010, that it will be available nationally, and that customers will be eligible for the account on the same basis as they are now.

Our response will cover our concerns about:

recognition of the needs of vulnerable groups and small businesses in rural areas
continuing the avoidable closures policy until an agreed and workable strategy is in place
access criteria
how local/area consultation is carried out and the suggested timescale
