With deep respect, we acknowledge all those who engaged in the Abuse in Care Inquiry. We honour the tremendous courage and mana demonstrated by survivors who shared their experiences. The final report's recommendations call our profession to a period of profound reflection. Social work must confront its past to build a better future. In response to recommendation 3c, we are currently developing a formal apology that meaningfully addresses the Inquiry's findings. This apology will be released in the coming weeks, following comprehensive consultation and careful review to ensure it appropriately acknowledges the harm experienced.
