Public Place Names Amendment Bill: Debate & Passage

21 September 2022

 

On 21 September 2022, my Public Place Names Amendment Bill 2021 was debated in the Assembly and subsequently passed with tri-partisan support!

The amendments proposed in this Bill align with contemporary community understandings and expectations. It’s time we replace recognition of persons famous in Australian colonisation with persons famous in Australia’s process toward reconciliation.

You can find more information about the Bill above!
