The Mother and Baby Institutions Payment Scheme, which will open later this year, will provide financial payments and an enhanced medical card to defined groups in acknowledgement of suffering experienced while resident in Mother and Baby and County Home Institutions.

As this scheme has not yet opened, no details can be provided regarding costs or number of claims.
