Taungurung people had concerns over flyer
Friday, September 14, 2018
The Taungurung Clans Aboriginal Corporation says there was initial concern about a flyer produced about a meeting to be held on Saturday (Sept. 15) at Camp Jungai, Rubicon.
“The flyer for the meeting was generated by the office of Lidia Thorpe, the member for Northcote and a Gunai woman, and it initially caused us some concern,” said TCAC chairman Grant Hansen.
“I have now discussed the matter with Lidia and can advise that TCAC representatives will be attending the meeting.
“The meeting is to discuss the cultural and environmental interests of Gunai/Kurnai, Wurundjeri and Taungurung traditional owners and the impact of the logging industry on our country.
“Any Board representatives attending the meeting will report back to Taungurung people through the TCAC newsletter,” Mr Hansen said.
