Liz Smith, Scottish Conservative MSP for Mid Scotland & Fife has welcomed the refurbishment of Kinross Post Office. Liz Smith, Scottish Conservative MSP for Mid Scotland & Fife said:“I welcome the fact that Kinross Post Office is to be refurbished and will offer a new main style branch service for Kinross.“Although it is disappointing that the refurbishment of the branch has been delayed I hope that the new Post Office service will be supported by local residents and businesses and I wish them the best in the future.”“There was a time when the only news we heard was of Post Office closures, securing the future of local Post Offices without resorting to the failed closures programme which dominated Labour’s time in Government is important and I welcome the fact the UK Conservative Government has made this a priority with no closures and major investment in the Post Office network.“The last Labour Government closed over 7000 post offices while in power. Since the election of the UK Conservative Government action has been taken to protect our post office network and help them to diversify in order to grow their businesses. “Conservatives are delivering a £1.34billion investment to provide a secure future for our Post Office Network.”
