Branch Losses Data searches

The request was refused by Post Office Limited.

Dear Post Office Limited,
Dawn Phillips was a POL witness in the JFSA trial who said in court"‘We look for any call in the previous month that could relate to the loss
that they have settled. We don’t specifically search for settled centrally calls.’
So how, wondered Ms Donnelly, does the Post Office find out if a discrepancy settled centrally is in dispute?
‘We try and do everything above £5,000,’ replied Ms Phillips.
There was a little moment in court as everybody mentally checked they’d
correctly heard what Ms Philips had said. The judge frowned. Even Ms
Donnelly seemed surprised.
‘So you wouldn’t bother checking the helpline log for £2,000?’ she asked.
‘It’s not a case of not bothering, it’s a case of how many have settled centrally and how many are large,’ came the reply.
Ms Phillips had just described a standard process of initiating debt recovery against Subpostmasters (whether their discrepancies are in dispute or not)
if the sum was lower than £5,000. "Has this procedure changed in any way?When does POL ask Fujitsu for Horizon information?Can SPM request data from Fujitsu?
