A clear case for moral leadership

Welcome to the Truth, Justice and Healing Council eNewsletter October 2015 View in Browser Forward to a Friend Subscribe

Labor commits to national redress scheme The Truth Justice and Healing Council has welcomed the announcement that a Federal Labor Government would invest $33 million to implement National Redress Scheme for survivors of institutional child sexual abuse. This is the first positive commitment from a political party, state or Federal, to the Royal Commission's redress proposals. It is now, more important than ever, to hear how the Turnbull Government intendes to respond to the Royal Commission's redress proposals.

Perhaps they are silent because they are negotiating with the South Australian Government which has again this week poured cold water over the Commission's redress plans. If South Australia continues to snub the Commission's proposal there will be many hundreds of child sexual abuse survivors in that state who will miss out or receive next to nothing for the abuse they endured in state homes and other South Australian government institutions. Latest from the Council National compensation scheme: a clear cut case for moral leadership This week The Sydney Morning Herald editorialised in support of a national compensation scheme for survivors of child sexual abuse. In an unambiguous leader on Monday the paper described the Royal Commission's redress proposals as giving 'Malcolm Turnbull's government a practical blueprint as well as an historic opportunity to exercise the moral leadership which has been so long lacking on this issue.
