Mornings With John Mackenzie

John MacKenzie chats with Luke Twyford, CEO of the Queensland Family & Child Commission, about discovered failings within the residential care system (Resicare). The investigations were spearheaded by the newly appointed Minister for Child Safety and local Member for Barron, Craig Crawford, and have highlighted the need for major overhauls, labeling the system as "under pressure" and acknowledging that it was designed to be a temporary place of care, but has morphed into a place for long-term living. Luke Twyford explained how Resicare homes are somewhat clinical and unhomely, meaning that children were hesitant about spending much time there.
