As early as 9 August 2017, the National Ombudsman published a report entitled "No power play, but fair play" about the 232 parents of the CAF 11 Hawaii case.[20] In it, the Ombudsman already strongly criticized the harsh approach that the Tax and Customs Administration took here, and recommended that these parents would be compensated. The child welfare fraud scandal was really publicly discovered when RTL Nieuws and Trouw newspaper reported about this case in September 2018.[21]
