MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (15:12):</by>  I have absolutely no idea what the honourable member is talking about, but I tell you what: if she has anything she wants to raise, I would encourage her to say it and say it outside of this forum. I have seen some of the comments that are made about corruption and nepotism for the Voice, and the only difference between the Voice elections and local council elections is the colour of the skin of the people that are standing. So if you have comments about it, I would encourage you to do so outside of this forum.</text>
