Who will get compensation from the Post Office scandal - and how much? | ITV News

The government has agreed that all wrongly convicted sub-postmasters are entitled to compensation of £600,000, but they can only be paid once their convictions have been quashed. To date, just 93 convictions have been overturned. Some 550 sub-postmasters successfully sued the Post Office, winning £58 million collectively, but court costs had to be paid from that sum before it was shared amongst them, meaning they received significantly less than £600,000. • Subscribe to ITV News on YouTube: http://bit.ly/2lOHmNj • Get breaking news and more stories at http://www.itv.com/news Follow ITV News on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/itvnews/ Follow ITV News on Twitter: https://twitter.com/itvnews Follow ITV News on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itvnews/
