COMPENSATION for postmasters victimised in the Horizon scandal can no longer be the responsibility of the Post Office, leading campaigner Alan Bates said today.
He also told a committee of MPs looking into the scandal that payouts to sub-postmasters were going too slowly.
“It’s very disappointing, it’s been going on for years and I can’t see an end to this,” he said.
