Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what recent estimate she has made of when Mrs Jasvinder Barang will receive compensation in respect of her overturned conviction by the Post Office.

Our aim is to ensure that every affected postmaster is fully recompensed for their losses and the suffering they have had to endure as a result of the Horizon scandal. To date, more than £148 million has been paid to 2,700 victims across all compensation schemes, 95 convictions have been overturned and, of those, 30 have agreed full and final settlements. Just over £30 million has been paid out in compensation to those with overturned convictions, including interim payments.

I cannot comment on individual claims for reasons of confidentiality.
