JAMES: PROVVEDERE/PROVVEDA is perfectly fine. In Italian (my mothertongue) does not mean that somebody else will do something that you were supposed to do. PORVVEDERE is a perfect synonym of do/execute/ etcc. = Fare, eseguire, provveder.
If I say "PROVVEDERO' AL PAGAMENTO" does not mean that somebody else will pay for me but I WILL PAY. Moreover, in "legal languge" in Italian you will never (almost) find someting like "you must pay" with the verb "PAGARE" but ALWAYS (or in the 99% of cases) you will find "PROVVEDERE AL PAGAMENTO": is much more formal, polite and detached, if you know what i mean. Sorry, my english is not very good at all but my italian yes.

pay the compensation

To translate "provveda" here would be wrong. An attempt to translate it would introduce the idea that the person should not pay it themselves but have somebody else pay it for them, which is not the case at all here. It is the same as the phrase . Non ti preoccupare provvedo io", which in most contexts means "Don't worry I'll do it" or in others"Don't worry I'll see to it".

see to the payment of compensation

the first answer is good, but this seems to insure provision, rather than just organisation.
