Critics urge the Home Office to relinquish responsibility for administering Windrush compensation.
Critics call for the Home Office to be stripped of responsibility for determining and handling compensation for the Windrush scandal. The scheme, launched in 2019, aims to address the wrongs committed in 2018, when many British citizens of Caribbean origin were denied healthcare and benefits and threatened with deportation. Despite concerns about the number of people dying before receiving payouts, the Home Office has resisted calls for reform, citing potential disruptions to claim processing and delayed payments.
