This proposed law has a few main goals. You will see that it aims to create a rule that says people who have committed serious violent or sexual crimes are not eligible for money as part of a redress scheme. It also sets out how these offenders can ask to be considered for money as part of a redress scheme. You need to know that this law also talks about apologies given to people who were abused in care. It says that an apology does not affect who is at fault or liable for the abuse. It also means that evidence of an apology cannot be used in court to prove someone was at fault for the abuse.
