LONDON, Jan 24 — Japan’s Fujitsu should be contributing hundreds of millions of pounds to pay the compensation bill the British government is expecting to face over the Post Office Scandal, postal minister Kevin Hollinrake told the BBC today.

When asked on BBC Radio if he thought Fujitsu could face a bill of “hundreds of millions of pounds” to compensate victims, Hollinrake said: “Yes, I do.”

“This will cost the taxpayer a billion pounds, maybe more than that,” he said. — Reuters
