A recent report by Ulster University Professor Patricia Lundy (in consultation with an expert panel on redress) advised that payments should be awarded to any former child residents of Northern Ireland institutions, irrespective of whether they suffered harm from sexual, physical or emotional violence. This redress would not be limited to the residential homes covered by Sir Anthony Hart's ongoing Historical Institutional Abuse (HIA) Inquiry. Some of the other recommendations in the report included providing for a separate individual compensation scheme for residents who suffered abuse; an official apology; access to counselling; access to records; and a "memory project."
