Australian Senators Andrew Bartlett (Democrats) and Kerry Nettle (Greens) and MP Chris Bowen (Labor) jointly held a press conference outside the Australian Parliament Building to announce the establishment of the Australian Delegation of the Coalition to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong (CIPFG).
