Rosemary Thomson: Criminal Barrister and Lake Alice Survivor on the need for redress for the survivors of abuse in care

Abuse in care survivors are united in their desire for urgent action following the Government's apology.  Prime Minister Christopher Luxon has proposed renaming streets and public amenities that are named after known abusers and establishing a National Remembrance Day.  He's also committing $32 million into the existing settlement process.  Criminal barrister Rosemary Thomson —a Lake Alice survivor— told Mike Hosking some survivors are sceptical, while others want to give the Government the benefit of the doubt.  She says everyone agrees redress is urgent, as the survivors are getting older, and generally aren't in good health.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
