MAHER (Attorney-General, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (15:06):</by>  I thank the honourable member for her question. I have regular conversations and representations from Aboriginal elders and from regional cities. Nearly all of them, I think, are on the expectation that I will keep those conversations private in exercising my duty, so I'm not going to go in this place or with the member into private conversations I have with people.</text>
