Hand Brake Failure

My son parked our Mini 1 on a hill today, put the handbrake on, went into a shop and when he came out it had rolled backwards, down the hill, over a junction and into a lamp post. It is now in the garage being assessed. The police report confirms that the handbrake was fully on.
Is this a common problem?

What, apart from leaving in gear and pionting wheels in can be done about it.

Has Mini issued any statements on it?
