The Leeming service will change to 3.15pm to 4pm on Tuesday; 11.30am to 1pm on Wednesday, and 3pm to 4pm on Friday.
The consultation will close on April 21. Submissions can be made via Freepost YOUR COMMENTS, Post Office Ltd, email to comments@postoffice.co.uk, or the customer helpline on 08457-223344.
