Find out about government agencies' redress schemes.
From 9 May 2025, the Government increased the out-of-court redress payment amounts for abuse in State care (MSD Historic Claims, Ministry of Education Sensitive Claims, Oranga Tamariki, Ministry of Health Historic Claims).
If you received a redress payment for abuse in State care before this date, you may be eligible for a top-up payment.
