I, and on behalf of Senators Humphries and Moore, move:

That the Senate—

(a)

welcomes the British Government’s apology made on 24 February 2010 to the thousands of children who were sent to Australia between 1937 and 1967 under child migration schemes; and

(b)

congratulates the British Government on this initiative and the announcement of their commitment to providing support to both the child migrants and their families.

Question agreed to.
