Uluru Statement from the Heart
On 16 May 2023, Council resolved to support the Uluru Statement from the Heart (Voice, Truth, Treaty).
Council’s elected members considered the matter of support for the Uluru Statement from the Heart during the lead up to the 2023 national referendum via which Australians were asked if the Australian Constitution should be changed to recognise the First Peoples of Australia by establishing an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice.
Council resolved to acknowledge the statement as a very generous invitation for the Australian people to walk together towards a better future and to support an informed and respectful conversation as Australians prepared to vote.
