Talk:Tim Parker (businessman)

Source being quoted incorrectly
The 'Post Office scandal' section in the article is inaccurate and needs correcting to preserve NPOV. I would also like to declare my conflict of interest in requesting these changes on behalf on Tim Parker.

Here is the original paragraph and source:
 * In 2016, Parker was criticised by the head of the government department responsible for the Post Office when he concealed from Post Office Ltd's own board of directors a report commissioned by the department's minister concerning potential miscarriages of justice resulting from the Post Office's prosecution of subpostmasters.
 * Source referenced: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/823579/response/2099404/attach/html/4/Information%20for%20release%2021.pdf.html

1. Rather than opening with "In 2016", it should say "In 2020" (as in the letter).

2. The letter acknowledges that Parker was "advised at the time by the Post Office’s General Counsel that for reasons of confidentiality and preserving legal privilege the circulation of the report should be strictly controlled". Rather than saying that Tim "concealed" the report from the Board, it would be more accurate to say "Parker was criticised by the head of the government department responsible for the Post Office for accepting advice not to share with Post Office Ltd's board of directors a report …"

3. The Swift review concerned "the steps taken in response to various complaints made by sub-postmasters", not "potential miscarriages of justice resulting from the Post Office's prosecution of subpostmasters" as written. The title and point 4 on page 4 of the review confirm this: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/871383/response/2099388/attach/3/Chairmans%20Review%20Redacted.pdf?cookie_passthrough=1

Following these changes, the paragraph should read as follows, citing the existing source and the new source in point 3:
 * In 2020, Parker was criticised by the head of the government department responsible for the Post Office for accepting advice not to share with Post Office Ltd's board of directors a report concerning the steps taken in response to various complaints made by sub-postmasters.
