Greater Bendigo is set to decide on a January 26 Statement of Intent, and a proposal to bring the Australia Day citizenship ceremony forward by one day.
The Council says the Statement of Intent is proposed to be a demonstration of its increased understanding and leadership when it comes to recognising the impact of January 26, Australia Day, on the local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community.
The recommendations will be considered by the Council at its upcoming meeting on 24th July.
