Sexual abuse survivors call for action over compensation scheme

Survivors of child sexual abuse and their advocates have called on the federal government to speed up consultation and development of a compensation scheme, as states and territories warn they may not sign up.
Social Services Minister Christian Porter announced a $4.3 billion opt-in national redress scheme for victims of abuse in institutions run by government, charities and religious organisations, following a recommendation of the royal commission.
