The Commission of Inquiry into the Tasmanian Government's Responses to Child Sexual Abuse in Institutional Settings has been tabled. Picture: Chris Kidd The Premier said the report found Tasmanian government institutions were"generally safe for children and young people" but more could have been done to protect them.
"To achieve this, we will build on the long-term partnerships we have with our highly valued out-of-home care providers and carriers to ensure we keep the safety, stability and wellbeing of children and young people at the forefront of all decisions we make."In March 2021, the Rockliff government established the Commission of Inquiry into its response to child sex abuse, following mounting pressure in November 2020 on then-Premier Peter Gutwein to make significant changes.
