Select Committee enquiry into post office closures
In a Westminster Hall debate by MPs this week on the programme of 2,500 post office closures, Peter Luff, Chairman of the relevant Select Committee, stated:
"It is a great pleasure that the swansong debate of the Select Committee on Trade and Industry, now the Select Committee on Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform, should be so popular. I am informed by the Speaker’s Office that this is the most popular ever Westminster Hall debate on a Select Committee report."
"The new Select Committee will launch an inquiry early in the new year into the progress of the post office closure process. We will have hearings, probably in late January or early February, and will revisit the process then, because this matter is obviously of deep concern to many colleagues."

It would appear that on the No 10 Website there was a petition, Calling for a PUBLIC INQUIREY into ROYAL MAIL/POSTOFFICE,
It would appear that a secret agenda is in operation, within the business, and the rundown, and loss of business, seems to have the backing of parliment, Our Postal Service was the best in the world, now its a laughing stock
Closing post offices is not joined up government. People especially the old will be forced to drive further, thus causing more congestion, using more precious fuel, and increasing global warming. People will also be more isolated, worsening already bad social problems/
