Immigration and Multiculturalism Forum
On Tuesday 11 September 2007 I hosted an Immigration and Multiculturalism Forum at Parliament House. Over 130 people attended to discuss Labor’s policies regarding immigration and multicultural affairs.
Mr Tony Burke MP, Shadow Minister for Immigration, Integration and Citizenship, and Mr Laurie Ferguson, Shadow Minister for Multicultural Affairs, addressed the forum and answered participants questions.
