A council has paid out nearly £3m to people sexually abused as children while in their care.
Nottinghamshire County Council said it had paid £2.96m to 161 people who made claims, while Nottingham City Council gave nearly £350,000 in compensation to 64 claimants.
Both authorities apologised for failings, which were the subject of an inquiry last year.
Victims and survivors have called for more support.
