    The Prime Minister says the national apology to abuse in care survivors has been tough and emotional

    The Prime Minister says the national apology to abuse in care survivors has been tough and emotional


    Christopher Luxon's confirmed a new compensation scheme will be in place by the middle of next year.

    He's also committing a further 32-million dollars to the existing settlement process.

    Luxon says he's been spending time with survivors, hearing their harrowing stories.

    He says giving the apology has been a huge weight of responsibility, as he's been speaking on behalf of his government, and all that have come before.
