Pause on Post Office Closures with immediacy.

Post Office senior management have announced plans for closures of many local Post Offices despite them being busy community assets.
Government should insist on these being paused pending consultations and review of the evidently deficient existing business, governance and managerial structre is determined.

Why is this important?

Post Offices offer a broad range of administrative facilities and financial services additional to postal services. Closures are signally motivated by expectation of a financial return on property value of Crown Post Offices rather than optimum community amenity, service and public utility.
