The memorial honours 85 dead soldiers from Moree used to stand in the entrance to the centre, in a common area that is accessible at all times, but has since been in storage for safe keeping while the renovations were occurring.

It was decided that more deliberation between the Dhiiyaan Centre, Director for Corporate Services and the Moree RSL sub-branch as the trustees for the Moree War Memorial Education Centre needs to be had.

One of the concerns was whether an internal wall needs to be put up between the Dhiiyaan Centre and common area for added security, but again more deliberation is needed between all concerned parties.

A concern raised by the Dhiiyaan Centre was there was no mention on the memorial of whether the soldiers were Aboriginal, but councillor John Tramby said the protocol of honours is they're irrespective of race or rank. 

"It's all equal, your contribution by giving your life. There's no rank in death," he said.

There were also issues raised about the level of disabled access available.

Council is confident a resolution can be made that will satisfy all parties.

Mayor Katrina Humphries wants to ensure it's properly organised and done right.

"I would hate for one minute that I didn't have the respect and absolute gratitude of the past soldiers," she said.

"It is a wonderful thing to have a historical museum, but we need to have everything right."

Also resolved at the council meeting, the Dr William Hunter Scholarship will no longer be limited to applicants from the Moree Plains Shire.

People from the wider Gwydir Shire will now be able to apply, with particular focus on the areas around Bingara and Collarenebri.
