The proposed franchising of some of its Crown Post Offices is the operational responsibility of Post Office Limited (POL). I understand that the company continues to explore all options for Rhyl with a view to finding a retail partner for the franchise. In the event that a suitable new retail partner cannot be found, POL has given a commitment that a post office service will be retained within the area.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
As this is the operational responsibility of the company I have therefore asked Paula Vennells, the Chief Executive of Post Office Limited, to write to the Hon Member on this matter. A copy of her reply will be placed in the libraries of the House.<\/p>

HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) announced on 16 October 2014 the closure of 14 of its smaller offices across the UK which do not fit the medium to long term plans of any line of business currently operating from them. This included one office in North Wales, Government Buildings, Colwyn Bay and followed consultation with staff, departmental trade unions and elected representatives.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
Following the decision, 38 people in Colwyn Bay have been given priority status for vacancies at their grade both within HMRC and in other government departments.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
HMRC has not invited staff in Colwyn Bay office to consider voluntary redundancy at this stage. HMRC remains committed to avoiding compulsory redundancy and will do everything it reasonably can to avoid it.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
There will be no impact on local HMRC services when the office in Colwyn Bay closes in July 2015 as it is not involved in direct customer-facing work.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1529", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mr David Gauke"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "South West Hertfordshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Mr David Gauke"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2014-10-30", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2014-10-30T17:08:48.1429593Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "14"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2014-10-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Revenue and Customs: Wales"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what progress has been made on the proposed closures of each HM Revenue and Customs office in North Wales; how many (a) forced and (b) voluntary redundancies each such closure entails; and what assessment he has made of the effect of such closures on levels of service by HM Revenue and Customs in North Wales.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/534", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Chris Ruane"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Vale of Clwyd"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Chris Ruane"} ], "uin" : "211760"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/100674", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Communities and Local Government"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/100674/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
Whilst savings have been made to help tackle the deficit left by the last Labour Government, they have been over-stated. Local government spending (excluding education) is actually higher than it was under the last Labour Government as the table below illustrates:<\/p>

However, residents\u2019 satisfaction is either the same or has increased according to independent surveys:<\/p> <\/p> \u2022 Research by ICM has found that 57 per cent of the public think that the quality of public services has improved or stayed the same compared to five years ago. Recycling collections, parks and open spaces, leisure centres and refuse collections are areas where the public think services have particularly improved (ICM Research, BBC News Bailout Anniversary Poll: Attitudes towards public services<\/em>, September 2013).<\/p> <\/p> <\/p> \u2022 Opinion research by PwC in 2014 has noted: \u2018As with our 2013 survey, almost half of the public we surveyed were unaware of any reductions in local council services in their area. To some extent, this is a testament to the success of local authorities to date in focussing on internal efficiencies while protecting the frontline\u2019 (PwC, The Local State We\u2019re In: PwC\u2019s annual local government survey<\/em>, 2014, p.7).<\/p> <\/p> <\/p> \u2022 A Ipsos Mori survey in 2014 has found that two-thirds (63 per cent) of local residents have said that local authority budget reductions have not made a noticeable difference to services (Zurich Municipal, A new world of risk; change for good<\/em>, July 2014, p.19).<\/p> <\/p> <\/p> \u2022 The number of respondents who were very or fairly satisfied with the way their local council runs things was 69 per cent in October 2010 (LGA, Polling on resident satisfaction with councils<\/em>, September 2012). The latest 2014 figures were 70 per cent and 67 per cent (LGA, Polling on resident satisfaction with councils, Full report<\/em>, January and July 2014).<\/p> <\/p> This shows the scope for the public sector to make sensible savings, whilst protecting frontline services and keeping council tax down.<\/p> <\/p>"}
