There are barriers to Indigenous people finding out just how much they are owed as many records and government document have been incomplete, lost or destroyed. Some of the records were deliberately destroyed, particularly when Aboriginal Welfare Boards were disbanded in the late 1960s.
Many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people were not allowed bank accounts until the 1970s, so payment processing were added hurdles.
Members of the Stolen Generations later had their wages withheld while working as domestics or farmhands after 'completing' their training in the homes that they were taken to after being forcibly removed from their families.
