Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Sitting of the Parliament of VictoriaPrint Page 
Two plaques commemorate the sitting of both houses of the Parliament of Victoria in the Bendigo Town Hall. The Legislative Assembly sat on the 16th August 2001 while the Legislative Council sat on the 6th September 2012.
The Victorian Legislative Assembly is the lower of the two houses of the Parliament of Victoria in Australia; the other house being the Victorian Legislative Council.
The Victorian Legislative Council (VLC), is the upper of the two houses of the Parliament of Victoria. The Legislative Council serves as a house of review, in a similar fashion to its federal counterpart, the Australian Senate.
