Community Consultation at Randwick

CRC Chair, Stepan Kerkyasharian and Commission officer, Thida Yang, listen to the view of community leaders in Randwick.

The Commission has resumed its programme of community consultation with a meeting of local community leaders in Randwick on Thursday 10th March.

Around twenty community leaders discussed a broad range of local issues, including youth behaviour, with CRC Chair, Stepan Kerkyasharian, Commissioner Seini Afeaki, Commissioner Michael Christodoulou, and Commission staff.

The Chair told the leaders that the meeting was part of the Commission's commitment and its obligation to consult broadly and deeply. During the meeting he took on board a number of requests for further investigation of local issues.

Mr Kerkyasharian said today the Commission would be continuing the programme of consultation throughout the year.

“Our job is very much to be the bridge that carries the hopes, aspirations and concerns from the community to the Government and to make recommendations for action”, he said.
