Alan Bates has criticised the “madness” of the Post Office scandal compensation scheme, revealing that he has been left waiting for more than two months after submitting a claim.
Mr Bates, the inspiration behind the ITV drama Mr Bates vs The Post Office, which told the story of the sandal, spoke to Parliament’s business and trade committee on Tuesday.
The former sub-postmaster said he had been waiting for 66 days so far to hear from the Horizon Shortfall Scheme.
