The film included the arrival of the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and York at St Kilda pier on 6 May and external views around the opening of Federal Parliament on the 9th.[1] Other activities were shot during their visit, such as the Duke laying the Boer War Memorial Foundation Stone in Ballarat.[1]
