Yvette Cooper welcomes redress system for child abuse survivors but points out weaknesses

Shadow Home Secretary Yvette Cooper has welcomed Suella Braverman's plan to create a new redress scheme for survivors of child sexual abuse.

But she also pointed out weaknesses in her statement.

She said: "Can I welcome the government's acceptance that there needs to be a redress scheme for victims and survivors of historic abuse?"

Ms Cooper added: "Can I also say to the Home Secretary, the rest of the statement is inadequate as a government response to such a serious and weighty report?"
