“There are a range of different reasons why people can be reported. It's not always fair. It's not always clear and transparent. That distress, that fear, that trauma – it all gets exacerbated. It's reminiscent of the Stolen Generations. There's a lack of transparency in the practice.”
What Dr Jacynta Krakouer has said
“In 2023-24, the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare child protection data shows that 648 unborn reports were substantiated in NSW – 42% of these reports were for unborn Aboriginal babies. There is a big difference between identifying concerns during pregnancy and making a formal finding that an unborn baby is already at risk of significant harm.”
