Post Offices
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what progress has been made on the Post Office trial of the ‘Hub of the High Street’ model.
Answered by Blair McDougall
As set out in the Government’s response to the Green Paper on the Future of the Post Office, the ‘Post Office Plus’ initiative (formerly known as Hubs of the High Street) aims to convert post office branches to offer a dedicated space for a new advisory service each day of the week. Post Office Ltd has made good progress and plans to open the first pilot sites this summer. I have written to Departments encouraging them to propose services that could be delivered through this model.
