Reparations and the Waitangi Tribunal
Tena koutou katoa. I have no expert knowledge of the legal or political context in Australia insofar as it applies to indigenous peoples here and even less on the issue of the controversial topic of the stolen generations. It would be utterly inappropriate therefore for me to express any view on the issues particular to this country. What I can do is talk to you a little bit about the process… -

Reparations and Reconciliation - A Perspective from the Churches
The NCCA comprises fifteen Protestant, Anglican, Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches. The Council is not a "superchurch," with authority over its member churches. I can tell you what I believe the churches are thinking and doing. I can advise them as to what they ought to be thinking and doing. But I cannot command them. Each church is autonomous, making decisions according to its own… -

Social Justice Report 2003: SUMMARY SHEET TWO: GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY FOR RECONCILIATION
During 2003, the government's approach to reconciliation has continued to be restricted to measures that fall within its 'practical' reconciliation approach.

The report establishes that progress in advancing 'practical' reconciliation over the… -
