  • Submitted by: Patricia Gibson, Cunninghame South, Scottish National Party
  • Date lodged: Friday, 14 August 2026
  • Motion type: Standard Motion
  • Motion reference: S7M-00852

That the Parliament notes reported continuing public concern regarding Fujitsu and its role in the Post Office Horizon scandal, which it considers to be one of the gravest miscarriages of justice in modern British history; understands that public funds have been used to support redress schemes, with £1.44 billion having been distributed to over 11,300 claimants; recognises the pain and suffering caused to the victims of the Horizon scandal through wrongful convictions, loss of livelihoods and reputations, financial hardship and devastating impacts on their lives and families; considers that Fujitsu has a moral responsibility to contribute towards compensation and redress for those affected, and notes concerns that to date it has reportedly made no financial contribution; further notes that the Home Office awarded Fujitsu a contract worth £31.1 million for police network software in June 2026; believes that no new public sector work should be awarded to Fujitsu until it makes a financial contribution to redress schemes.
