Horizon IT System: Compensation
Asked by: Luke Akehurst (Labour - North Durham) Monday 15th September 2025 Question to the Department for Business and Trade: To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what steps his Department has taken to reduce the time taken to award compensation payments to victims of the Horizon Scandal. Answered by Blair McDougall - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Business and Trade) This Government has greatly accelerated redress. We have launched the Horizon Convictions Redress Scheme (HCRS) and Horizon Shortfall Scheme Appeals process. We have begun payments of a £75,000 fixed offer for those postmasters in the Horizon Shortfall Scheme (HSS) who want to accept it. We deliver 89% of offers within 40 working days of receiving full claims. The total amount of redress paid under all schemes has more than quadrupled since July 2024. As of 29 August 2025, approximately £1,176 million has been paid in total redress to over 8,600 claimants across the three live Horizon schemes. |
