Survivors respond to national apology for abuse in care

Put up or shut up - that's the message from survivors to the government after today's national apology for abuse in care. Public sector leaders were greeted by jeers and boos as they fronted survivors at Parliament to apologise for the failings of their ministries and departments. Emotions were raw as politicians and bureaucrats told hundreds of survivors two words they waited decades to hear - we're sorry. The Royal Commission of Inquiry into abuse in state and faith-based care found at least 200,000 children, young people and vulnerable persons were abused, tortured and neglected in care - today was their day. Timothy Brown was in parliament and filed this report.
