The house in the Australian city of Cairns where eight children were found stabbed to death may soon be no more.

There are plans to demolish it and in its place create a memorial to the young victims.

(SOUNDBITE) (English) QUEENSLAND LAWMAKER GAVIN KING SAYING:

"It's the right thing to do going forward to help with the healing process."

The mother of seven of the children has been charged with murdering them and her teenage niece.

The 37-year-old woman is undergoing hospital treatment for stab wounds.
