Although the Australian Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in
Custody (RCIADIe tabled its National Report over a decade ago, its
339 recommendations are still used today to steer Indigenous
justice policy. The inquiry began as an investigation into
Indigenous deaths in custody, but its scope was later broadened to
encompass a wide range of matters affecting Indigenous Australians.
Numerous criticisms have been made about the way the investigation
was conducted and about the effectiveness and appropriateness of
the recommendations made. In particular, a number of criticisms
highlighted the failure of the RCIADIC to consider the problems
confronting Indigenous women. This book contains a detailed
analysis of the way in which the problems confronting Indigenous
women were considered in the Indigenous texts and official reports
produced by the RCIADIC, and using data from 48 interviews of
people who either worked for the RCIADIC or were in some other way
associated with the RCIADIC, it provides reasons for the male-
centred focus of the inquiry.
