Jason Beer KC has turned to examining Vennells' professional background and knowledge of how the Post Office operated. | |
The lead counsel to the inquiry asks if it is correct she had no previous experience of managing both a large IT team and an organisation which prosecuted its own staff - Vennells says this is correct. | |
The barrister then moves on to discussing several references to the importance of protecting public money, asking if Vennells was preoccupied with this concept? | |
The former Post Office CEO says she was not preoccupied with, but adds that when she joined the Royal Mail in 2007 she was surprised about how much attention was paid to a document called "managing public money". | |
"Of course it's because it was important, because all public organisations are funded through public money," Vennells tells Beer. | |
