The report draws attention to the very high incidence of malnutrition found in Aboriginal children in the Territory as well as the concern about broad health and social issues emanating from extreme overcrowding and institutional neglect. Not all children in the Northern Territory are able to access full-time education as Government fails to supply full-time qualified teachers. School attendance is in decline and bilingual learning programs have
been withdrawn from schools.</div><div><br></div><div><div style="margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; line-height: 1.5em; font-size: 12px; color: rgb(64, 64, 64); font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Grande', Georgia, Arial, Helvetica, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; text-align: left; word-wrap: break-word; "><img src="http://www.crin.org/i/icons/ie_icon.gif" alt="Web link" class="floatleftnomargin" style="margin: 0px 5px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; border-width: 0px; float: left; "><a href="http://www.concernedaustralians.com.au/" target="_blank" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; color: rgb(54, 95, 109); border-bottom-width: 1px; border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-color: rgb(191, 216, 223); ">www.concernedaustralians.com.au</a></div><hr style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-color: rgb(204,
