Dear Joe
I have now had the opportunity to review the above case with Alison.
We currently have some cases on hold where former agents are claiming that Horizon has caused
their discrepancies and so this case gives us some cause for concerns.
The ideal solution for us would be to secure a confidential settlement of £4k to £6k on commercial
grounds which would avoid any risk of criticism of Horizon by the Judge.
To progress to Court I think we would need to give serious consideration to acquiring the Fujitsu
data to validate the integrity of our Horizon system.
If you wish to discuss further please do not hesitate to contact me otherwise I look forward to
receiving an up date from you in due course.
With thanks
Jackie Whitham
