Today we've published our latest compensation and registration figures. These are accurate as of 30 September.

These show that since our last publication on 27 August, a further 830 people have been asked to start their claim.This includes:

- 493 people acting on behalf of a deceased infected person
- 127 living infected people who have never been compensated
- 207 affected people

We have now asked every living infected person registered with us to start their claim. If you think you have a living infected registration with us but haven't heard from us, please get in touch to let us know.

We've started over half of all known deceased infected claims. We will ask all deceased infected claims to start by the end of March 2027.

We're sorry for the inconvenience.

From today, the fourth regulations are now built into the claims service. This means:

🟢 if you're starting a new claim from today, we'll apply the amended rules to your claim automatically when you’re brought into the service
🟢 if you have an active claim in the service, your claim manager will work with you to apply the amended rules to your ongoing claim
🟢 if you have received a compensation payment before 1 October 2026, we'll check your claim against the information we currently hold and let you know next steps as soon as possible

You do not need to do anything right now. We'll contact you directly and let you know the next steps for your claim.

In the meantime, you can find out more information in our news story.

We’ve also updated our compensation calculator and website guidance.

If you have questions about how these changes impact your claim, your claim manager can help. You can also contact us using your preferred method: https://ibca.org.uk/contact.

The four Infected Blood Support Schemes (IBSS) in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland will close in early 2027. IBCA will then take over making these payments.

If you're currently registered with a support scheme, your scheme will keep managing your payments as normal until the change happens, with no interruption to your support. You don't need to do anything right now, and we will contact you directly with more information about anything you might need to do.

We've launched a webpage where we'll share the latest updates on this, and we'll continue to highlight information about this in our community updates.

We're changing how often we share our compensation and registration figures, following community feedback.

We’ve heard from community groups and our Community Advisory Panel that sharing figures every two weeks can make it harder to see a clear picture.

So we'll now share our latest figures once a month, instead of every two weeks. We hope this will give you a clearer, steadier view of how compensation claims are progressing.

Our final fortnightly report was published today: https://ibca.org.uk/statistics/registration-and-compensation-progress-update-27-august-2026/?utm_campaign=lastest_figures&utm_medium=organic-social&utm_source=facebook

Our first monthly report will follow on Thursday 8 October.

We'll keep listening and looking at how we share figures and how they're presented, including ways to share more detail in future.
