Would you support an inquiry into forced adoptions from the 1950s to 1970s?

Kendall Hutt Reporter from North Shore Times

Hi neighbours. It was a privilege to hear Josette Ible tell us her story of her miraculous escape as an unwed mother from the 'baby scoop' era of the 1950s to 1970s. Ible is keen to see an inquiry into forced adoptions for the sake of those who were not so lucky to keep their babies. Would you like to see an inquiry into forced adoptions from the baby scoop era? Were you an unwed mother, forced to give up your baby for adoption, and would like to share your story? Email kendall.hutt@stuff.co.nz.
