The hon. Gentleman knows well that growth prospects in all European countries are extremely depressed at the moment, not only in the UK. T4. [119420] Richard Graham (Gloucester) (Con): As secretary of the all-party group for post offices, I strongly support the Government's commitment to ensuring that there are no further post office closures, as well as the ambition to develop post offices to carry out more front-office Government services. I am, however, slightly concerned about the pace of progress in making new services available through post offices, and sub-postmasters in Gloucester are concerned about the possibility of losing the DVLA contract. I appreciate that the Minister has only just arrived in her post, but will she give that issue priority in the future? The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills (Jo Swinson): I thank my hon. Friend for his comments; he is a strong campaigner for post offices which we all recognise lie at the heart of many of our communities. He asked me to comment on a live procurement contract, which I hope he will understand I cannot do. There are, however, some reasons to be cheerful. Over the past year, the Government's services revenue for Post Office Ltd increased for the first time in 10 years, reversing the trend of decline that we saw under the previous Government. John Healey (Wentworth and Dearne) (Lab): May I welcome the new Minister responsible for further education and skills to one of the most important economic posts
