Thrapston Library

Tom Pursglove Excerpts

Friday 2nd February 2018 Commons Chamber

[Tom Pursglove (Corby) (Con)]

I am presenting this petition today on the future of Thrapston library on behalf of the people of Thrapston and the surrounding area, who rely on this vital facility that provides a range of important services for the community. They want the library to remain open, and a similar petition has received 975 signatures.

The petition states:

The petition of residents of the United Kingdom,

Declares that Thrapston Library should remain open.

The petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urges the Government to compel Northamptonshire County Council to ensure Thrapston Library remains open.

And the petitioners remain, etc.
