First Nations Voice to Parliament

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (15:01): My question is to the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs regarding the South Australian Aboriginal Voice to Parliament elections. Did the minister cast his democratic right in the South Australian Aboriginal Voice to Parliament elections and, if so, in which region did the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs cast his vote?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (15:02): I thank the honourable member for her question. Similarly to, for example, the Governor at state elections not casting a vote in the state elections, as the minister responsible I didn't cast a vote but I very much look forward to when I am not the minister and can cast my vote in these elections.
