The Committee has not yet submitted a Report. An Interim Report, covering the majority of the claims for compensation, is expected at an early date.
Pending consideration of the Report, no provision for compensation has been made in the Estimates. Legislation will be required before effect can be given to any recommendation that may be accepted.
