^{The Australian Convict Sites Steering Committee acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the ancestral homelands upon which our sites are situated and recognises their distinct connection to Country. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging and all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples. We acknowledge the impact and legacy of British colonial expansion on First Peoples, including displacement from Country, loss of life and culture, and inter-generational trauma. We also remember and pay our respects to the Aboriginal, Maori and Khoisan convicts and prisoners who died or were incarcerated on these sites.}
