Subject: : Final versions of press releases

Attachments: ATTOOOO1.txt

Attached is the release as promised (contains quotes from James Arbuthnot and from me). Although this is
in draft format, it is the final version.

Plus, pasted immediately below, the Post office reactive statement:

β€œThe Post Office continues to have absolute confidence in the robustness and integrity of its branch
accounting processes. Over the past ten years, many millions of branch reconciliations have been carried
out with transactions and balances accurately recorded by more than 25,000 different subpostmasters. The
Post Office has no hesitation in agreeing to an external review of these few individual cases that have
been raised with us by a number of MPs.”
