Paedophile victims could receive £20,000

Around 20 victims of the same paedophile could receive up to £20,000 each in proposals to be discussed by a Scottish council tomorrow.

Dumfries and Galloway Council’s 47 councillors are being asked to approve the payments to people identified as having suffered abuse at the hands of Peter Harley in a residential home run by its regional council predecessor decades ago.
