His Majesty's concern and care for Territorians is heartwarming. His Majesty knows the strength, resilience, and determination of our community. I hope that His Majesty's message provides some comfort and support as we move forward and rebuild.
The Administrator has throughout the crisis, met with evacuees, emergency service and health personnel, plus local communities to acknowledge the exceptional leadership, service and community unity that has defined Territorians throughout this disaster.
