They can give back the land they still own in Barbados, for starters. They're not going to be poor without it. Drax weren't just another wealthy family who benefited from "the ways things were done". They were instrumental to the slavery 'industry'. And I think it's relevant that they're still staggeringly rich.
I don't know anything about the UN conventions etc though so I'm sure I'm missing a great deal, but "starting negotiations" does not seem troubling to me.
