Subject: Urgent Communication Request – Agent Orange Children / ICC & UNGA Report A/80/174
Dear Special Rapporteur,
I am an Agent Orange Child. My case is already before the International Criminal Court (ICC) under Article 15, and I hold OTP confirmation.
On 16 July 2025, the UN Special Rapporteur on toxics and human rights (Marcos Orellana) presented Report A/80/174, which explicitly names “Military Toxic Crimes” as Crimes Against Humanity. In October, this report will be tabled before the UN General Assembly.
Despite this, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the United States continue to omit second-generation Agent Orange children from recognition, health screening, and protective measures. For 50 years, governments have hidden behind “policy” while victims live with untreated, transgenerational medical harms.
Attached is a letter dated 4 July 2025 from the Director-General of Queensland Health, which explicitly states that Queensland Health has “no obligation” to provide recognition or compensation for TCDD exposure. This letter is evidence of the State’s refusal to acknowledge binding international obligations under the right to health, despite Australia’s ratification of UNCAC, the Stockholm Convention, the CRC, and other treaties. It confirms that domestic avenues are blocked, and that escalation to your mandate and to the ICC is the only available path.
I request urgent action from your mandate to:
Issue a communication to the governments of Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the United States regarding their obligations under the right to health.
Call for immediate medical screening and recognition of second-generation Agent Orange victims.
Press these States to respond publicly to A/80/174 and confirm what steps they will take to comply.

Time is urgent. The UNGA is in October. Please confirm whether you will issue a communication or public statement. Silence will be annexed to the ICC as complicity, for transparency I blog everything.

A formal complaint has been lodged with the International Criminal Court for Crimes against Humanity. The final submission was the 1st of July 2025.
Australia ratified International treaties but failed to implement them into domestic laws.
When the United Nations tells you 8+ times you are breaking the law, YOU ARE BREAKING THE LAW. Stockholm Convention & Agent Orange is a chemical war crime against children.
Profit before People is a crime.
Duty ~ Knowledge ~ Silence = Guilty ⚖️
