Petition updateFACS (nee DOCS): Transparency & Accountability for Government Agency

Appeal to Minister

Daryl VertiganMiranda, Australia
May 29, 2016 — To: - The Hon. Mr Hazzard (Minister for FACS) CC'd: - The Hon. Bill Shorten (Leader of the Opposition) - Tania Mihailuk (Shadow Minister for FACS) - The Hon. Scott Morrison (Member for Cook) - Eleni Petinos (Member for Miranda) - Australian Human Rights Commission - St George & Sutherland Shire Leader - The Sydney Morning Herald - 9 News Dear Mr Hazzard, As you are aware, these children have now been removed from their parents. These children have already been diagnosed with acute separation anxiety as a result of a wrongful removal in 2010. The workers and managers responsible have been unwilling to accept this diagnosis and have removed the children in response to a series of complaints that were made about their ongoing conduct. I have attached the final complaint and response that lead to the removal. It is imperative, therefore, for the sake of these children, that you intervene now, restore these children to their mother who is under my care. The court process can go ahead, but these children are not in a position to endure further long-term separation from their mother. I continue to act in the best interests of the children.
