Former Post Office Chief Executive Paula Vennells has acknowledged that the testimony she provided to MPs in 2012 regarding issues with the Horizon IT system was inaccurate.
Paula Vennells faced heavy criticism over her handling of the Horizon affair, finally stepping down from her role as Post Office chief executive in February 2019.
Paula Vennells has said she was “too trusting” as she was asked if she was the “unluckiest CEO in the United Kingdom”. Giving evidence on her first day at the Post Office Horizon IT inquiry on Wednesday (22 May), Jason Beer KC asked Ms Vennells: “Do you think you are the unluckiest CEO in the United Kingdom?”
Paula Vennells repeatedly burst into tears during her first appearance at the Post Office Horizon IT Inquiry as she mounted a desperate bid to salvage her reputation. The disgraced former boss of the Post Office offered an apology to subpostmasters caught up in the scandal, dubbed the worst miscarriage of justice in British history.
