First Peoples’ Assembly of Victoria Co-chair and Gunditjmara man, Rueben Berg, said:
“As Premier, Dan Andrews understood the power and importance of listening to First Peoples.
Our mob will always remember and appreciate the willingness of his government to embark with us on the shared journey to Treaty in Victoria.”
Assembly Co-chair, Wamba Wamba, Yorta Yorta, Dhudhuroa and Dja Dja Wurrung woman, Ngarra Murray, said:
“Victoria has led the nation in pursuing Voice, Treaty and Truth and we recognise the significant role Daniel Andrews has played in that.
Daniel Andrews knows that we always get better outcomes when Aboriginal people have the ability to make the decisions that affect Aboriginal people. We look forward to making that a reality as we continue the journey to Treaty with the new Premier.”
History will remember Dan Andrews for his many achievements 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Aboriginal Victoria will remember him for his leadership on the journey toward Treaty and for starting Australia's first ever truth-telling commission.
