Key recent developments

Where to learn more
- Final Report and Calls for Justice: The National Inquiry’s Final Report and the subsequent Calls for Justice remain central to policy discussions and government plans. See the Inquiry’s Final Report pages and related government action plans for primary details.[4][10]

Illustration
- A simple way to track progress: compare the Calls for Justice with the items in the Federal Pathway Annual Progress Reports year over year, noting which calls are fully implemented, partially implemented, or not yet addressed, and identify gaps by sector (law enforcement, health, child welfare, justice, data collection). This helps visualize where priorities shifted since the Final Report.
