PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
PROPOSED POST OFFICE CLOSURE IN ELLESMERE PORT (23 January 2006)
Motion Details
That this House condemns the manner in which the Post Office has failed to engage in meaningful consultations with either staff or public about the closure of Ellesmere Port Crown Office; and calls upon the Government, as shareholders, to instruct the Post Office management to withdraw its current proposal, to share with stakeholders the financial facts and ensure that if it demonstrates a position that is commercially recoverable that time is allowed to enable a proper recovery programme to be instituted.
