In addition, the NSW Government wants to introduce new tree-clearing laws that will see the destruction of trees and bushland across urban and rural areas. 287-289 New South Head Road, Edgecliff. © 2016. Richard Milnes/Alamy Live NewsPictured: Paddy Gibson (Padraic Gibson). The coronial inquest into the death of Ms Dhu began last year at Court 51, 5th floor, Central Law Courts, 501 Hay Street, Perth. The inquest started on Monday 23 November 2015 and was set to end on Friday 4 December but went overtime. Last year only the health witnesses were heard. Police will give their testimony when the inquest resumes 14–24 March. The inquest is public, so anyone is able to attend. Members of the DICWC will be attending every day. ISJA Sydney will be rallying outside of NSW Parliament in solidarity with the Dhu family for justice for Julieka Dhu and all other deaths in custody during this difficult time. We welcome all friends, family and concerned citizens to join us. (c) Richard Milnes/Alamy Live News
