SBS NITV: WA Indigenous groups say truth telling bill doesn’t go far enough

A proposed national truth-telling commission to examine injustices faced by Indigenous people has been described by some groups as inappropriate. Several WA organisations will give evidence on Tuesday at a parliamentary inquiry into a truth and justice commission bill.

The legislation put forward by the Greens would set up a commission to examine historical and ongoing injustices against Indigenous people and make recommendations to Canberra.
