Statement from the Bishops of the Anglican Province of Victoria in response to the Yoorrook Justice Commission’s Final Report Wednesday July 02 2025
The Anglican Province of Victoria stands by the hard truths told during the Land, Sky and Waters Hearings last year, as reflected in the Province’s written submissions and the Commission’s Third Interim Report and Final Report released on 1 July 2025.
