South Devon MP Caroline Voaden has continued her campaign to secure a banking hub in Totnes, questioning a Treasury Minister in Parliament on Tuesday, 4 November.
Ms Voaden asked whether new regulation is needed to help rural areas retain face-to-face banking services, noting that while the Financial Conduct Authority protects access to cash, there is no government body overseeing access to these services.
She also mentioned that Lloyds Banking Group will prevent customers from cashing cheques at Post Offices from January next year.
