Post Office statement - release of historical document via recent Freedom of Information request

Commenting on the release of a historical document disclosed via a Freedom of Information (FOI) request, a Post Office spokesperson said:

“Post Office does not tolerate racism in any shape or form. The language used in this historic document is completely abhorrent and condemned by today’s Post Office. We fully support investigations into Post Office’s past wrong doings and believe the Horizon IT Inquiry will help ensure today’s Post Office has the confidence of its Postmasters and the communities it supports.”
