Mr Turnbull wants all states, territories and churches to sign up to a national redress scheme, for which the government has already provided $52.1 million.

A task force is currently examining the recommendations of the $500 million royal commission and a parliamentary committee will oversee the national response.

The Prime Minister is also expected to discuss it further with premiers and chief ministers at the Council of Australian Governments meeting on Friday (Feb 9).
