A law aimed at exonerating subpostmasters caught up in the Horizon scandal is expected to be brought forward “as soon as possible next month”, Kevin Hollinrake has said. The Post Office minister said he hopes all the convictions will be “overturned by July” and that he “very much hopes” compensation will be paid before the next general election. Updating MPs on the Government’s plans, he also told the Commons that convictions would be quashed as soon as the proposals become law “without the need for people to apply to have their convictions overturned”.
