POST OFFICE CARD ACCOUNTS

Tabled by Mr Alan Reid (Liberal Democrat) 91 signatures

The motion

That this House notes that more than four million people have chosen to collect their pensions and benefits from Post Office Card Accounts and that the Account is estimated to generate more than one billion pounds income for post offices between 2003 and 2012, without which many post offices will not survive; and calls on the Government to keep the Post Office Card Account after the present contract expires in 2010 so that people will still have the option of using Post Office Card Accounts at their local post office.
