Provision of Horizon evidence is not free
Dear Post Office Limited,This is what your legal team told Seema Misra. ‘The retrieval of data is not a free service,’ it
said. ‘It is very expensive and depends upon the amount of data which has to
be retrieved which is why you are requested to be very precise… Please could
you also advise us as to why you consider the data relevant."Anthony Oppenheim ICL boss in giving evidence to the Horizon Inquiry yesterday said The Post Office’s attitude was “contractually and morally wrong”.What documents do you hold that show Fujitsu charged Post Office Ltd to supply documents/data when requested by SPM's,their defence teams or others?
Yours faithfully,

Dear [email address],Thank you for a reply.It is not clear from your reply if The Provision of Horizon detail is free or not.It would seem POL were allowed to request information 15,720 times before charges were triggered-is that correct?Were SPM told all enquiries are charged and do you have a record of how many SPM requested Horizon details from their Branch to assist their defence?How many were supplied and how much did POL charge the SPM's or were all requests turned down?
Yours sincerely,
john o'sullivan
