When Hannah’s case came to my attention, I made supporting her return to the UK an immediate priority.
My office worked with her family, legal representatives and HM Passport Office to help resolve the issues preventing her return.

The case also led me to encourage HM Passport Office to carry out a lessons learned review, helping to improve processes for others in the future.
Hannah Dankwa and her family should never have had to endure the trauma they experienced. It was wrong.

Many of those wronged by the Home Office Windrush Scandal are in Jamaica now, and some don’t know help is available to them.
I am travelling to Jamaica later this month to listen and to keep pressing for change.

Yesterday I told MPs the Windrush Compensation Scheme must fund legal support. Survivors face serious complexity and a heavy evidential burden - often alone. That isn’t fair and it isn’t acceptable.

NEW: The government has introduced long‑overdue reforms to the Windrush Compensation Scheme — including advance payments and pension loss redress — effective today. Survivors say justice must now be delivered in practice, not just promised.

I welcome the recent changes to the Windrush Compensation Scheme.
These reforms respond to issues I have raised on behalf of people affected by the scandal — and I'll keep pushing to make sure they deliver real improvements.
