Conclusion
The Ministry of Justice must ensure all records available to the department are rigorously checked before issuing requests for additional information. This would help prevent unnecessary re-traumatisation and prevent exacerbating sub-postmasters’ understandable distrust in the system. Vulnerable individuals should be offered legal aid to respond to requests for information. (Recommendation, Paragraph 53)
