The below Parliamentary question was asked by Caroline Lucas on 2016-02-11.
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, for what reasons changes to Crown branches take place outside the scope of formal Crown transformation programmes.
George Freeman
The provision of its Crown branches is the commercial responsibility of Post Office Limited.
Like any commercial organisation, Post Office Limited continually reviews all elements of its business to ensure they are effective and efficient. Changes are essential to ensure the long term viability and competitiveness of any company, whether these are as part of a dedicated transformation programme or in the normal course of operations.
