Reimburse wrongfully convicted for deductions from compensation for living cost

Petition Details

I was wrongfully convicted for a crime and after my conviction was overturned I was given compensation for the nearly 12 years I spent in prison, but this was reduced to reflect savings on living costs. I want everyone affected by these deductions to be reimbursed.

Additional Information

Reimburse all victims of miscarriages of justice in the UK for any deductions made to their compensation based on saved living expenses.
