Answer
We will publish information on the total number of claims paid and the overall amount paid out by the scheme shortly, as noted in the Home Secretary’s report to the Home Affairs Select Committee https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/update-to-the-hasc-on-windrush-22-october-2019. A breakdown of claims awarded by geographical area will not be published as this could potentially identify individual claimants.
