Former prime minister Julia Gillard has described as historic the handing down of the final report from the child abuse royal commission.
Five years ago, Ms Gillard set up the inquiry which on Friday wrapped up its work with a 17 volume report.
"On this historic day, my personal thanks go to the royal commissioners and all who supported their work. Our nation is indebted to you and to the survivors who fought so hard for justice and a safer future for our children," she tweeted.
