The software company was also responsible for collecting data and for witness statements about the data for prosecutions not just for code. There were bugs that the company knew about which affected both the collection of data presented and the collecting of data. The conversations about costs related to these bugs in some instances it seems. Additionally the witness statements were written possibly with bias in them.
Right now on YouTube there are Fujitsu staff being asked questions by the enquiry on this topic.
Worth also saying that some bugs were discovered in a product which was due to be replaced by a new system so it was considered low priority to fix. However it impacted cases of several years before it was discovered.
I think maybe that 2 Fujitsu employees are either investigation or being currently prosecuted by the met police, so there are criminal proceedings being under taken right now in relation (I guess) to these bugs in the older version of the code. There's not much info about this currently for obvious legal reasons.
