While it appears the major parties may have struck some form of agreement, and it remains unclear whether amendments to address some issues will be possible, we appreciate the opportunity and @davidpocock.bsky.social's continuing commitment to community consultation.

This was a collegial discussion attended by members of different faith groups, advocacy groups, experts, stakeholders, and Ngunnawal community elders & representatives.

There was a clear consensus that many issues require further consultation.

NTEU ACT Division Secretary Dr Lachlan Clohesy & ACT Division President Katie Ley attended.

@nteunion.bsky.social expressed concerns on retrospectivity, ambiguity, unintended consequences, and the lack of a 'good faith' defence which exists in other relevant sections of the Criminal Code.
