A $7.5bn (£4.7bn) compensation plan has been announced to help thousands of US residents affected by last year's hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

Affected residents could receive up to $150,000 in what Louisiana's governor called "one of the most important programmes our state will ever run".

However, direct relief is still months away and homeowners awaiting the aid could take on more debt in the interim.

About 1,300 people were killed and 170,000 homes destroyed by the storms. [Read more - BBC]
