00:00The CCU's directive on Mr. Haddad was issued by the Council's regulatory and compliance team late last night.
00:08The reason given is that the centre, which has been in operation since 1970, does not have a permit to operate as a prayer hall.
00:16Instead, Council says that it was recently being approved to operate as a medical centre.
00:21Premier Chris Minns says he supports the Council's decision.
00:24This is an important change, not just for that community, but for New South Wales.
00:28And I want to make it clear, it's not the end of the matter.
00:31We need to make decisive steps, whether it's through planning law or hate speech,
00:35to send a message to those who are intent on putting hate in people's heart, or spreading racism in our community,
00:42that they will be met with the full force of the law. And that's exactly what's happened today.
00:46Al-Medina Group issued a statement on December 15th, distancing themselves from Wussam Haddad,
00:51saying that he is no longer a part of the committee that runs the group,
00:55and that he is only sometimes invited as a guest lecturer.
00:59A federal court earlier this year found that Mr. Haddad gave lectures at the centre
01:04that contained language that was anti-Semitic, and that was reasonably likely to offend, insult,
01:10humiliate, and intimidate Jews in Australia.
01:15And if willing, this is notë§ing to do their full force of humanŃŃĐž.
01:20This is exactly the way to fullyĐžŃДлŃisedĂeactivation of which one is anìŽëŒë,
01:22now inside this department of which one is a century,
01:24which was basically the number of the committee,
01:25we put out of the delegation throughout the country in obseră delskì ì,
01:26and this is also a campaign presenter.
01:27The cowardice's decision of being pepza,
01:28has designed to RepĂșblica,
01:29and this is just a constant number word,
01:31the controls that have been to cuest so many people we see,
01:34but there's noPleaseish to maintain during this interview onissance basis for this occasion.
