Beyond Bush Talks: Chris Sidoti (2000)
Thank you for inviting me to speak today.

I spoke in particular about some of the health concerns raised in the consultations. Today I would like to look beyond Bush Talks in more detail at some of the areas of particular concern which were raised and then explain some of the Commission's continuing work on human rights in rural Australia. -
