Bill Kenneally survivors deserve more than a report left to gather dust

Survivors seek accountability as the commission details failures by institutions, influential figures and State agencies

Convicted paedophile Bill Kenneally

Any detailed analysis of the South East Commission of Investigation’s final report into serial paedophile Bill Kenneally  is hampered by both its sheer size and a notable lack of firm conclusions or recommendations.

This is not to denigrate the report, which was released on Tuesday. It is diligent to a fault, incredibly detailed, plainly fair-minded, and will be of massive benefit to the survivors of Kenneally — potentially the most prolific child abuser in the history of the State — as they consider their next steps.
