The minister for Indigenous Australians, Linda Burney, has called for claims of possible clandestine burial sites at the former Kinchela Aboriginal Boys’ Training Home to be investigated.
Guardian Australia revealed on Thursday that multiple sites of possible secret or “clandestine” burials have been discovered on the grounds of Kinchela – one of the most violent and abusive institutions of the Stolen Generations era, on the New South Wales north coast.
