National Redress Scheme

In reply to the Hon. T.A. FRANKS ().8 February 2023).

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector): I have been advised:

The government is a committed participant in the National Redress Scheme for victims of child sexual abuse.

The government intends to move a motion in the House of Assembly. This motion to be moved on the 15-year anniversary of the apology supplied by then Premier the Hon. Mike Rann, will allow us, as done in the past, to acknowledge survivors of institutionalised child abuse.
