The first President’s dinner since the 2019 COVID lockdown was held on 22 June 2022.

The dinner was hosted by the Trust’s President the Rt Hon Trevor Mallard MP, Speaker of the House of Representatives with the Hon Michael Wood, Minister of Immigration, Transport and Workplace Relations and Safety as the Parliamentary guest.
