The first Catholics to reside in Australia arrived with the First Fleet in 1788. They were mostly Irish convicts, together with a few Royal Marines. One-tenth of all convicts transported to Australia were Catholic, and half of these were born in Ireland, while a good proportion of the others were English-born but of Irish extraction.
In Australia, their assets are usually held by their own body recognised in state law. A national organisation, Catholic Religious Australia (the public name of the Australian Conference of Leaders of Religious Institutes), facilitates cooperation and fellowship among the more than 175 such groups active in Australia today.
