Call for evidence description

We want to hear from the broad range of individuals, groups and organisations that are affected by the failings which occurred at Post Office Limited (POL) in relation to the Horizon IT system. This might include, but is not limited to, current or previous postmasters, POL employees, Fujitsu Services Limited and government. Those who have not been directly affected but have useful information are also welcome to respond.

This call for evidence aims to gain a perspective on historical, contemporary and future issues relating to:

  • the human impact
  • the Horizon IT system
  • the contractual arrangements between POL and postmasters
  • the service offer
  • dispute management
  • whistleblowing and governance
  • the settlement agreement

See the Post Office Horizon IT Inquiry 2020 page for the Inquiry terms of reference and statements of approach.
