All Experts OnlinePost Office Closures
31 October 2007, s.roast
Following the DTI consultation which ended in March 2007 the Government announced that 2,500 Post Offices will close in the UK.
The closures will all undergo a 6 week consultation process in their local area. This will be managed in groups known as areas - the areas will be based on Parliamentary Constituencies and there will be 40-50 areas covering the whole of the UK.
It is not yet known in what order the announcements and consultations will take place.
The closure of 2500 Post Offices is compulsory.
