POST OFFICES IN SOUTH LAKELAND

That this House notes with grave concern the ongoing plans to close Beetham, Leven Valley and Greenodd post offices; notes the inadequate outreach service proposed in place of the post office in Dent; further notes the damage the planned closures will do to local communities in South Lakeland as post offices form an integral part of local life; and urges the Government and Post Office Limited to review the closures of these branches immediately.
