Ms Chris Wallace:

I want to thank the committee for hearing us. Hopefully we will see changes in the Bill. We put a lot more information in the submission relating to certain parts that would help. It would also help if my name was spelled right. I have had enough problems with spellings of my surname. It is my name, it is the one I use, and it is spelled "ace".

To the birth mothers I say I agree with much of what the birth mothers have said. My birth mother did not sign the adoption form. It was forged. I have never met her, she is dead, but I have proof that it was fake. We do not take the birth mothers as being the wronged parties, we are all in the wrong. It is the State and the religious orders that have caused it. I thank you all for the work you are doing and I hope that we do not have to come back again because I may not be around next time.
