Abstract
My comments reflect an 11 year research program that I have developed and conducted with a small team of researchers and PhD students focused on Child Maltreatment. This represents a most substantial body of work on the causes and consequences of child maltreatment and how maltreatment and harms can be prevented. This knowledge and expertise was recognised in an invitation by NSW Treasury to contribute to a NSW Interagency Taskforce to address child maltreatment, an invited presentation and funded contributions to the Queensland Inquiry into their child protection system, summons to provide evidence to the SA and Victorian Inquiries into their child protection systems.
