They’ve been lying about it for over 25 years. This is because the evidence against them is now overwhelming and the only option left is to admit it.

Fujitsu isn’t shying away from taking the blame on this which is interesting. Are they legitimately just “doing the right thing” or is there a benefit for them to just own this?

It’s been well known that Fujitsu are to blame, there’s no benefit to them pretending otherwise and fighting any of this. I think they’ve put aside money to help with compensation claims as well so I think it’s reputation damage control and for the sake of future projects they are doing this. On some level, it’s at least good to see they are doing this but I do wonder why they didn’t before.
Also, Fujitsu being open about the issues forces the Civil Service and the government to be open as well. Clearly Fujitsu are to blame but so are those other two.
