Mr. Noel Waters:
In due course, there are two routes. The case can go to the Criminal Injuries Compensation Tribunal, where the level of awards is quite modest but they do get a pain and suffering element to it. Alternatively, they can go through the legal route through the State Claims Agency and get compensation through that.
