Sajid Javid says that members of Windrush generation to receive apologies

BBC reports that eighteen members of the UK’s Windrush generation who could have been wrongfully removed or detained are to get a formal apology.

Home Secretary Sajid Javid said a review had identified the 18 as those “most likely to have suffered detriment because their right to be in the UK was not recognised”.

He will also direct them to a compensation scheme being set up by the government.
