First Nations Voice To Parliament

The Hon. L.A. HENDERSON (14:22): Supplementary question: can the minister advise if there will be educational information—

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order, the Hon. Mr Hunter! The Hon. Mrs Henderson, start your question again.

The Hon. L.A. HENDERSON: Can the minister please advise if educational materials will be distributed throughout South Australia in the lead-up to the state election?

The PRESIDENT: Now you can answer that if you want, Attorney.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (14:22): I thank the honourable member for her question.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! The Hon. Ms Bonaros, you are not helping. I actually want to listen to the Attorney, not you—not you!

The Hon. K.J. MAHER: I thank the honourable member for her question. What I can say is there absolutely will be, as I have said, work done by both the Electoral Commissioner and the Commissioner for First Nations Voice about making sure that there's awareness of our State Voice. I think that's a very good thing to do and I would hope everyone in this chamber agrees that's a good thing to do.

The Hon. L.A. HENDERSON: Supplementary question?

The PRESIDENT: No. The honourable Leader of the Opposition, your second question. I'm not having multiple, multiple supplementaries today.
