The royal couple will visit Adelaide, Canberra, Sydney, Albany and Perth during their time in Australia from November 10 to 15.
Mr Turnbull, a former chairman of the Australian Republican Movement and author of two books on the issue, has issued a statement saying he is looking forward to the visit.
"Lucy and I will be delighted to welcome The Prince and Duchess," he said.
Mr Turnbull has previously spoken about the "celebrity appeal" of the Royal family, saying it was not enough to justify retaining a foreign monarch as Australia's head of state.

I wonder if public turn-outs will be similar to that of either of his sons recent visits.

I dont think I'd bother heading out to see Charles and Camilla if they came to Melbourne... I remember lining up to watch Charles and Di drive through Seymour when I was in primary school though. That was a big event back then 🙂
How to make me feel old!
We got married two days after Charles and Di. Our wedding was much nicer and lasted longer
I may or may not have been in primary school at the time

Actually, I worked hard for eveything I have, I rely on no one to get me my education, I paid for my own
Unlike this girl, rich daddy, privlidged life and secures a scholarship...like she needed it?
as for my good will and good deeds, they are for me and I dont need to boast about what i do or for whom
and yet you think its OK to vilify a good man and his daughter? to call them vile names and somehow intimate that they are spongers and bludgers. This is a man who has dedicated his whole working life to public service and charity work and yet you feel it's OK to call him atrocious names.
Mr Abbott is not rich and he has 4 daughters who are not spongers but great examples of what we should all like our children to aspire to.
