5 total sponsorsTabled

Motion Text

That this House regrets that Post Office Limited is considering closing Wester Hailes Post Office; further regrets the potential loss of jobs and service provision in the heart of one of Scotland's most deprived communities; notes that Post Office Limited has not yet contacted the local Member of Parliament to discuss their proposals for their vital community hub in one of Scotland's most deprived communities; agrees that the Post Office Horizon IT Inquiry uncovered significant problems in the centre of the company, and people in Wester Hailes cannot be expected to pay the price for that; and calls for a genuine consultation process involving affected individuals before any final decision is made.
