Prime Minister Kevin Rudd delivered the National Apology to the Stolen Generations ten years ago, on 13 February 2008. The formal apology to Australia’s Indigenous peoples in Federal Parliament aimed to redress the policies of past governments which included the forced removal of children from their families.
Through our relationships with Australia's television broadcasters, and the Newscaf 'News and Current Affairs Program', the NFSA has collected and preserved a number of videos that recorded this significant event in Australia's history.
