The man who apologised to indigenous people in Australia for the mistreatment they suffered for centuries, has been speaking to Al Jazeera.

Ten years ago, Kevin Rudd, Australia's then-prime minister, apologised in parliament to generations of Aboriginal children who were forcibly taken from their homes and put in state institutions.

In a special interview, he told Al Jazeera's Andrew Thomas that more can still be done to support the indigenous community.
