Shellharbour City is deeply concerned about the grave threat that nuclear weapons pose to communities throughout the world. We firmly believe that our residents have the right to live in a world free of this threat. Any use of nuclear weapons whether deliberate or accidently, would have catastrophic far reaching and long lasting consequences for people and the environment. Therefore, we warmly welcome the adoption of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons by the United Nations in 2017, and we call upon the Australian Federal Government to sign and ratify it without delay.
