新西兰通过法案,向受虐待的幸存者提供最多30 000美元的补偿,让他们得到州一级和基于信仰的护理。 New Zealand passes bill offering up to $30,000 in redress to abuse survivors in state and faith-based care.

新西兰引入了《护理虐待补救制度法案》,推动应对国家护理和基于信仰的护理中的历史虐待。 New Zealand has introduced the Redress System for Abuse in Care Bill, advancing its response to historical abuse in state and faith-based care. 该法案建立了一个正式制度,向幸存者提供资金支付、道歉、记录查阅、法律援助和咨询,拨款5.33亿美元,用于将平均付款额提高到30 000美元,并向900多名过去的索赔者提供补发费。 The bill establishes a formal system offering financial payments, apologies, records access, legal aid, and counselling to survivors, with $533 million allocated to boost average payments to $30,000 and provide top-ups to over 900 past claimants. 它适用于关键的政府机构,但不适用于学校董事会或信仰团体。 It applies to key government agencies but not school boards or faith-based groups. 新的独立审查程序将评估被判犯有严重刑事罪的幸存者的补救资格,以维持公众信心。 A new independent review process will assess redress eligibility for survivors with serious criminal convictions, aiming to maintain public confidence. 该法案规定了透明的资格标准,将由议会社会服务和社区委员会进行审查,报告应于2026年3月23日前提交。 The bill, which mandates transparent eligibility criteria, will be reviewed by Parliament’s Social Services and Community committee, with a report due by March 23, 2026.
