'Moral obligation' over compensation

It comes as Alan Bates and other campaigners blamed red tape and bureaucracy amid anger over delays for subpostmasters accessing compensation.

Fujitsu Europe director Paul Patterson said: "To the subpostmasters and their families, Fujitsu would like to apologise for our part in this appalling miscarriage of justice.

"We were involved from the very start. We did have bugs and errors in the system. And we did help the Post Office in their prosecutions of subpostmasters. For that we are truly sorry," he told Parliament's Business and Trade Committee.
