Horizon IT System: Surrey
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, whether he has made an assessment of the adequacy of interim compensation payments made to sub-postmasters affected by Horizon IT in Surrey.
Answered by Blair McDougall
The Government has taken several steps to simplify the claims process across the Horizon redress schemes, ensuring that all postmasters have the support they need to set out their claims. We continue to work closely with the Horizon Compensation Advisory Board to explore ways to further improve claimants’ experiences. Eligible claimants across the schemes can access interim payments once their claim has been accepted.
