The Joint Standing Committee on the Commissioner for Children and Young People's 2018-19 annual report reviews the Commissioner's work, particularly regarding the 'Improving the Odds' report and the 'Speaking Out Survey'. The committee also examined the government's response to the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse, including an inquiry into child safe standards. The report highlights the need for improved oversight in both government and non-government sectors.
