        <text id="20231017d6943e66e8f3440aa0000315">As the Leader of the Opposition is well aware, the government has been very deliberate in its approach around the application of the Uluru Statement. Obviously, the Uluru Statement finds itself in a difficult position on a federal level now by virtue of the weekend's result, but for the purposes of South Australian government policy we were very clear from the outset that Voice comes first. Voice will be established and up and running throughout the course of next year, all things being well, and from there the government will turn its mind to Treaty and Truth.</text>
        <text id="20231017d6943e66e8f3440aa0000316">What I would say about Treaty before anyone tries to, I think, unreasonably cause concern about it, is that we see state governments delivering on Treaty propositions in different forms right throughout the country, but we are very clear about the fact that Voice comes first, and we await the implementation of the Voice next year.</text>
