On the Thursday and Friday prior to the event and following the evidence of a credible threat on social media.
If there were safety concerns surrounding the Christian Orthodox Interfaith Lunch, why were these not mentioned in the CEO’s report in the July council meeting four days prior to the lunch? The information was not available at that time regarding the threats that had been made.

Was the Christian Orthodox community consulted regarding concerns that may have been expressed at the presence of private security guards and Police dressed in riot gear? Police were not dressed in riot gear. The CEO nor any staff member present received any comment or concern from attendees on the day of the event. What was the total cost of hiring the Private Security Guards and how where these cost funded?
