<p>The Government consultation on the Windrush Compensation Scheme was extended to
16 November. We are committed to establishing the scheme as quickly and carefully
as possible, taking into account the outcome of that consultation. Further details
on compensation will be made available when the scheme is established, including who
is eligible to apply for compensation and how they can access the scheme.</p><p>Ahead
of the scheme coming into operation, the Home Office has already put measures in place
to help those who are affected. This includes a dedicated team for vulnerable people
within the Windrush taskforce, providing assistance where an urgent need for support
or advice has been identified.</p>
