Registration and compensation progress update: 13 August 2026

Published 13 August 2026

Today (13 August 2026) we have released our latest registration and compensation figures.

All the figures on this page are correct as of 11 August 2026.

Where fewer than 10 people have registered, been contacted or started the claim process in a reporting period, we don’t report the increase in people figures. This is to protect people’s privacy and make sure no one can be identified. We still increase and report on the financial values where applicable.

Registration progress

IBCA opened the register your intent service on 9 October 2025.

Since then, we have received 20,243 registrations of intent to make a compensation claim with us.

This figure represents individual registrations, not unique people or claims. This is because some people may have registered more than once.

The living infected figure below does not include those claiming as living with infection and registered with a support scheme, as they should already have been contacted beforehand.

Of this number there have been registrations of intent from:

Living infected people, or their representative 1,431
Living affected people, or their representative 15,317
Living infected and affected people, or their representative 380
People acting on behalf of a deceased infected person 2,951
People acting on behalf of a deceased affected person 164
