That this House notes that Kwik Save stores have closed 79 of its shops, making some 700 people redundant across the country; further notes that Kwik Save has not yet made any redundancy payments to its workers; believes that this is completely unacceptable in the light of the £50 million rescue package Kwik Save received in February 2007; calls upon Kwik Save to make immediate payments to all its affected workers; and calls upon the Government to bring forward proposals so that companies cannot delay making redundancy payments to their workers.
