Scotland’s Redress Scheme: contributor list

Organisations participating in the redress scheme by making a fair and meaningful financial contribution. Scotland’s Redress Scheme is for survivors of historical abuse in care.


Overview

The Redress for Survivors (Historical Child Abuse in Care) (Scotland) Act 2021 requires the Scottish Ministers to name the date a contributor is added to the list, the financial contribution they are making or has agreed to make, note if a contributor is removed from the list, and include the date that this removal takes effect.

Organisations that were responsible for the care of children at the time of the abuse have been asked to participate in Scotland’s Redress Scheme, and to make fair and meaningful financial contributions to redress payments for survivors. This is what survivors said that they wanted in successive consultations. 

The purpose of the contributor list is to show the organisations that are eligible for inclusion on the waiver as a result of them making a fair and meaningful contribution to the redress scheme.

The waiver applies to the organisation and not to the individual care settings. 

We also publish letters from organisations acknowledging the harm caused by historical child abuse in care settings.
