A new public holiday for Victorians is set to be discussed at upcoming Treaty negotiations next month. The First Peoples’ Assembly of Victoria is expected to propose a public holiday to celebrate Aboriginal culture as formal Treaty talks with the state government begin at the end of November. After speaking with First Nations people across the state about what they would like included in Treaty agreements, Assembly co-chair Rueben Berg told 7 NEWS .com.
“I’m not going to negotiate through the media or publicly what’s in and out about what First Peoples bring to the table because I’m focused on Victoria being ready, the Victorian government being ready … to negotiate,” she said. Small Business Australia executive director Bill Lang said the public holiday was “unwanted” and that small businesses would pay the price.
