The President of the Uniting Church in Australia Stuart McMillan has welcomed the Redress and Civil Litigation Report released by the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse.
“We are pleased that the Royal Commission’s Report recommends that a process for redress must provide equal access and equal treatment for survivors,” said Mr McMillan.
“We strongly support the Report’s recommendation for a single national scheme to meet the needs of survivors.
“Equality of access and a single national scheme are elements we raised in our own submissions to the Royal Commission and we hope that Federal and State Governments take these recommendations on board in their consideration of the Report.”
