I spoke in Parliament in support of the Islamic Council of Victoria, and would like to recognise the wonderful work they do in creating a vibrant Islamic community in Victoria that results in deeper and meaningful connections with the broader Victorian community.

And I especially want to point out the important work the ICV does in strengthening relationships between First Nations people and the Muslim communities. This was highlighted with the signing of an Accord to Recognise and Support the First Peoples of Australia, between the ICV and the National Congress of Australia’s First Peoples.
