Former Labour MP Kate Hollern, who lost her Blackburn seat to Independent candidate Adnan Hussain in July, has been appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE).
Committee chairman Liam Byrne MP said: "The fault lies with the Post Office, but ultimately government is the shareholder in the Post Office and acts on our behalf".The government is already looking at the Post Office's role in the compensation schemes.
Between 1999 and 2015 hundreds of sub-postmasters were prosecuted and convicted based on information from a faulty accounting system, Horizon, which made it look like money was missing.Some sub-postmasters wrongfully went to prison, many were financially ruined, and some have since died.One of those accused, Seema Misra, was eight weeks pregnant when she was wrongfully imprisoned.
after she was made an OBE in the King's New Year list for her role in campaigning for justice, she said it was an acknowledgement of the "scale of the injustice and scandal".The scandal "still hasn't been sorted out", she said, recalling the "really, really difficult time" she had had since her legal battle with the Post Offices started in 2008, three years after she had bought the Post Office in West Byfleet in Surrey.
She served four-and-a-half months in Bronzefield prison and gave birth to her second son wearing an electronic tag.
A public inquiry in to the scandalBut many observers believe there is a danger that Sudan will drift into de-facto partition, with the two warring parties and their backers entrenching themselves in their zones of influence.
The RSF is working to set up a parallel government in areas it controls, gathering allied groups to sign a political charter and constitution last month in Nairobi.Its intention was to show that despite battlefield setbacks, it remains a potent force - and that its desire to take control of the country remains undimmed.
Sudan's people have borne the brunt of this brutal civil war, which has inflicted massive death, destruction, and human rights violations on civilians.The United Nations has described the situation in the country as the world's worst humanitarian crisis. More than 12 million people have been forced to flee their homes and millions face acute food shortages, with parts of the country driven into famine.
