Legislative Council Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Treaty Negotiations Treaty Negotiations The Hon. R.I. LUCAS Legislative Council Treaty Negotiations The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (14:54): Supplementary question: to use the minister's language from yesterday that it was 'fake news', I wasn't referring to— The Hon. K.J. Maher Legislative Council The Hon. K.J. Maher: You're fake news. The Hon. R.I. LUCAS Legislative Council The Hon. R.I. LUCAS: I wasn't referring to— The Hon. K.J. Maher Legislative Council The Hon. K.J. Maher: You are fake news. The President Legislative Council The PRESIDENT: Order! The Hon. R.I. LUCAS Legislative Council The Hon. R.I. LUCAS: I was not referring to South Australian schools. I'm well aware of that. I am saying that in some other states there are some schools which solely teach their programs in the indigenous language of their particular community. My question to you was: given your response to my first question, is that something that the government is considering, or would be prepared to consider, as part of the treaty negotiations? The Hon. K.J. MAHER Legislative Council Minister for Employment, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation, Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Science and Information Economy The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Employment, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation, Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Science and Information Economy) (14:55): Of course, as I have said, we are not ruling anything in or anything out, but I would think it highly unlikely that there would be schools that would break what we are doing now. We certainly do teach—I know on the APY lands classes are taught in language, and language is kept alive and culture strong as part of the schooling, teaching the Pitjantjatjara language. Certainly, that's the suggestion that has been put forward by, I think, the Adnyamathanha in the media
