Let me first say this is purely my opinion, I am not a politician so cannot give the absolute answer as to the workings of political parties.
I think that governments previous to the Rudd Labour Government were probably afraid of the financial implications that could be felt after apologising, which could be seen as an admission of guilt. Once you admit guilt for an act, you could be held liable for compensation. Governments did not want to be responsible for the misdeeds of earlier generations of government. However, the apology given by Kevin Rudd had no admission of illegality or negligence according to lawyers, as the acts committed against the Aboriginal people were legal at the time they happened.

Which is more correct apologize to the Dr. or apologize for the Dr.?
They're both correct sentences. The first one: Apoligize to the Dr. would be if you did something to the doctor and you wanted to apologize. But if you write: Apologize for the doctor then that's a whole different thing. That would be if maybe the doctor did something to someone and didn't want to apologize so you apologize for them. So anyway they are both correct. It isn't possible to have one that's more correct because that just isn't possible to get.
