Question to the Department for Business and Trade:
To ask His Majesty's Government how many sub-postmasters wrongfully convicted because of flawed Horizon computer evidence are yet to have their convictions overturned, and to receive compensation.
All convictions which met the conditions of the Post Office (Horizon System) Offences Act 2024 (and that were not overturned by the Courts prior to the legislation coming into effect) were overturned at the point of Royal Assent.
As of 28 February 2025, all 111 individuals on the Overturned Convictions scheme had received an interim payment, of which 68 individuals had reached a full and final settlement. On the Horizon Convictions Redress Scheme, 407 individuals had received an interim payment, of which 273 individuals had reached a full and final settlement.[1]
