Abuse in Care, a Royal Commission of Inquiry exists beacuse of the hard work from many survivors and their supporters going back decades.
We are looking into what happened to children, young people and vulnerable adults in state care and in the care of faith-based institutions between the years 1950-99.
Through hearing from survivors, evidence and research, we will make recommendations to Government on how New Zealand can better care for children, young people and vulnerable adults.
The Inquiry is led by a Chair, four Commissioners, the Counsel Assist and an Executive Director. It is supported by a secretariat.
See what has been happening since the Inquiry was announced in 2018 and what is planned for the next phase of the Inquiry.
The Terms of Reference describe the purpose and boundaries of the inquiry.
