Hi

I need help in these questions.
1Q. what were the two key policies adopted by british select committee in relation to the bad treatment of aboriginal people in Australia.
2Q. What laws and system were put in place as a result of these policies?

My Answer are following:

1Q. (Answer) 1. separation, by creating reserves and relocating Aboriginal communities to them.
2. Education, which should focus on the young and relate to every aspect of their lives.

2Q. (Answer) In Victoria's parliament the Aboriginal Protection Act was passed in 1869 and appointing the Aborigines Protection Board. The board was responsible for putting the system in place. Every state passed the this law except Tasmania. Most of them also appointed a Chief Protector who was given wide powers to control the lives of Aboriginal people. In some states, including the Northern Territory the Chief Protector was also made the legal guardian of every Aboriginal child.


Is these answer are correct or not?

Thanks
