Excerpt from ABC News:
Five years on from a NSW government-commissioned Family is Culture review into the sector, only 12 of the 126 recommendations have been fully implemented.
On Wednesday, NSW Aboriginal organisations including family and community peak body AbSec, the Aboriginal Legal Service, UTS Jumbunna Institute for Indigenous Education and Research and the Justice and Equity Centre called for “urgent action”.
First on their wishlist was for the NSW government to set up an independent Child Protection Commission and appoint a commissioner for aboriginal children and young people, as other states have already implemented.
