SYDNEY - Australia will remove the British monarch from its banknotes, replacing the late Queen Elizabeth II's image on its $5 note with a design honouring Indigenous culture, the central bank said Thursday.
The Reserve Bank of Australia said it would consult Indigenous people on a new design that "honours the culture and history of the First Australians". Australia is a constitutional monarchy, a democracy with King Charles III as its head of state. A referendum proposing a switch to a republic was narrowly defeated in 1999.
The new banknote would take "a number of years" to be designed and printed, it said, with the existing $5 note remaining legal tender even after the new design is in people's hands.The RBA's move was hailed by the nation's republican movement, which noted that Indigenous people predated British settlement by 65,000 years.
