No coffins for Camden Cemetery's Islamic Section

Wednesday, 02 March 2011 06:32 |

coffin2 Camden Council last week approved a 70-plot Islamic lawn section at Camden General Cemetery, and voted to seek NSW Health Department approval for burials without coffins.

The council’s undertaking followed an appeal by Campbelltown-based Suburban Islamic Association, which also asked for a lawn cemetery and for Macarthur area Muslims to be charged the same as Camden locals to be buried.

The full story is reported in the Macarthur Chronicle
