16  What redress is provided to a person?  (1) Redress for a person consists of 3 components:  (a) a redress payment (of up to $150,000); and  (b) a counselling and psychological component which, depending on where the person lives (as stated in the person’s application for redress), consists of:  (i) access to counselling and psychological services provided under the scheme; or  (ii) a payment (of up to $5,000) to enable the person to access counselling and psychological services provided outside of the scheme; and  (c) a direct personal response from:  (i) each of the participating institutions that are determined by the Operator under paragraph 29(2)(b) to be responsible for the abuse of the person; and  (ii) each of the partly‑participating institutions that are determined by the Operator under paragraph 29(2)(j) to be responsible for the abuse of the person and for which the Operator determines under paragraph 29(2)(k) that a participating jurisdiction is a funder of last resort in relation to the abuse. Note: For what a direct personal response consists of, see subsection 54(2).  (2) A person who is entitled to redress under the scheme may choose to accept 1, 2 or all 3 of those components of redress.  (3) If 2 or more participating institutions or partly‑participating institutions are determined to be responsible for the person’s abuse and the person chooses to be given a direct personal response, then the person may choose to be given a direct personal response from each of those institutions, or from only some or one of them.
