Update on the Solicitors Regulation Authority investigation on the Post Office scandal
25 June 2026
We have referred two individuals to the Solicitors Disciplinary Tribunal (SDT). The cases refer to conduct that took place in the period after the main events of the Post Office Horizon scandal.
We refer cases to the SDT when the alleged misconduct is too serious to be dealt with by our own internal powers. The date for the cases to be heard will be decided by the SDT itself. However, you can view the referrals here.
Our wider investigations are still ongoing, including into issues relating to the Horizon IT scandal, where we are working closely with the Inquiry team and the Metropolitan Police. We can and will take action if we find that solicitors we regulate fail to meet our standards.
