Stolen Generations Reparations Scheme

The Hon. T.J. STEPHENS (15:20): Supplementary question: does that 300 include next of kin? Are you considering next of kin in this?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (15:21): I thank the honourable member for his supplementary question. The scheme is open to members of the stolen generations—those people who were removed without court order while they were resident in South Australia. For next of kin, other family members and other members of the community who were affected by forced removals in the past, that is what we will consult about with the fund for whole-of-community reparations.
