Child Protection Australia 2008–09 is the thirteenth annual comprehensive child protection report. The report provides detailed statistical information on state and territory child protection and support services, and some of the characteristics of the children within these systems.
The number of children on care and protection orders, in out-of-home care and who are subject to a notification of child abuse or neglect, has increased since 2008 according to this report.
