Govt not setting up compensation scheme for Abuse in Care survivors

Appalling; insulting; another broken promise; and a total kick in the guts - those are the words of abuse in care survivors, who are united in their view that the government has betrayed them with its changes to redress announced today. The government will not be setting up a new compensation scheme for survivors, as it had promised for so long, and as the Abuse in Care Royal Commission of Inquiry had recommended. Instead, 774-million dollars will be spent improving the existing system and to make changes to New Zealand's care system. Timothy Brown has the story.
