00:00 The former chairman of the post office has made allegations in public that he

00:06 received either direct instructions or by a nod and a wink, orders in effect to

00:12 try and slow the process down so that "the Tories could limp into the

00:18 next election" minimizing financial liabilities. Do you believe that

00:23 your chairman did receive such a message?

00:27 I don't believe that to be the case and I can categorically say that nobody in my team or

00:32 myself has received any instruction from the government about slowing down

00:36 compensation. I think he's misinterpreted or perhaps misunderstood

00:40 the conversation he had with Mrs Mambé.
