English | *(personal half) Or, the symbol Chi-Rho gules on a chief azure the letter M argent. |
Origin/meaning
As common in Australian episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop.
The arms refer to Christ (the Chi-Rho symbol) and Our Lady (the letter M).
The achievement is completed with the heraldic insignia of a prelate of the rank of bishop.
