First Nations Voice to Parliament

The Hon. L.A. HENDERSON (15:41): Supplementary question: is the minister satisfied, and has he been able to satisfy himself, that the Voice is a sustainable model?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (15:41): One thing I am quite certain of is that as the Voice develops, as it progresses, there will be changes about its processes. There may even need to be legislative change about how it operates and, again, when you set up something for the first time in Australia I think that is a natural consequence.
