Aboriginal law and lore has been practised on this land long before any other. Last week, there was a First Peoples ceremonial sitting at the Supreme Court of Victoria. Embellished with possum skins, art and gum leaf, the event highlighted contributions made by Elders, First Nations barristers, solicitors, judicial officers and court staff. It was the first ceremony of its kind, a powerful recognition of some important truths in this State and a strong embrace of First Peoples’ cultures – which is always something we like to see!

Yoorrook Justice Commission are seeking short submissions on the health system. Short submissions are a quick and easy way to help put the true history of Victoria on the public record.
