\’'m covering for Andy Winn at the moment. Please find responses to the first six questions. Questions seven and
eight will take slightly longer as I will have to obtain further information from different departments within POL. This
could be further delayed due to period end reporting taking place in FSC. I hope this is ok ?
Responses to your original questions in blue text below.

Dear Andy,
During the bi-weekly conference call on 23" March 2016 you made reference to a branch at
Wimbledon and explained that Transaction Corrections had been issued which should not have
been so issued and that they had accordingly been “undone”. You went on to explain that there
was a risk that Transaction Corrections may have similarly been issued to other branches which
may have caused losses, possibly going back as far as 2005.
I would be grateful if you could explain:-
1. The precise reason the transaction corrections had been issued to the Wimbledon branch;
Unpaid cheques held in the stock unit.
2. The value of the transaction corrections in this particular case;
The value of the original Transaction Correction is £2400.00
3. The effect of those transaction corrections on branch accounting;
It doubled up the discrepancy from £2400.00 to £4800.00
4, Why the transaction corrections should not have been issued;
This was a value stock item, this item should have been “adjusted” in branch.
5. How the transaction correction issue was discovered;
The branch contacted their Franchise Contracts Manager
6. Whether this issue has arisen as a result of a bug in the Horizon system;
This issue has risen due to an error in branch and then further confusion in Finance Service Centre regarding
the issuing of TC’s.
7. Whether this is an isolated incident or this is an issue which has or may have affected other
branches.
8. If this issue has affected other branches, the period of time over which transaction
corrections may have been wrongly issued and the names of the branches affected.
Many thanks,
