Post Office scandal victims still waiting for compensation
The faulty software installed in the post offices made it look like money had been going missing from branches. The Post Office said: "We want to provide full, fair and final settlements and are urging the government, who are the funders of the compensation, to help us reach agreement with the legal representatives of the postmasters and therefore be able to make payments as soon as possible." There are more than 600 others who were prosecuted by the Post Office on the basis of Horizon software, with 33 individual cases currently being considered by the Criminal Cases Review Commission in England and Wales, and nine in the same process in the Scottish legal system. Some 555 individuals who brought a civil case against the Post Office have also been locked out of compensation. All victims are hoping that someone within government, the Post Office and Fujitsu, who made the Horizon software, will be held to account.
