All claims received by the Windrush Compensation Scheme are registered and acknowledged upon receipt of the claim. The subsequent consideration of a claim consists of different essential stages, including a Windrush Compensation Scheme eligibility check and an assessment of compensation entitlement.

Data on the Windrush Compensation Scheme is available to view on GOV.UK at:
