Mr Macneil has been the first MP to meet with the Post Office network following the announcement that they are looking to find retail partners for 70 of their Crown Post Offices.
Mr MacNeil said: “The Crown Post Office in Stornoway is an important part of the town centre and I made it clear at the meeting that the Stornoway branch must remain within the town centre.
“I also stressed the importance of ensuring that the Crown Post Office in Stornoway should retain all the services it currently offers and enhanced, if possible.”
