27022 (2025). Hon Willow-Jean Prime to the Lead Coordination Minister for the Government's Response to the Royal Commission’s Report into Historical Abuse in State Care and in the Care of Faith-based Institutions: Which survivors of egregious abuse in care, if any, will be eligible to apply for higher payments?
Hon Erica Stanford: Redress agencies assess a claim and provide a payment according to the agency’s payment framework having regard to the type, severity and frequency of abuse suffered with higher settlement payments for more serious abuse. The common payments framework being developed will provide clear payment steps and definitions and ensure consistency across agencies.
