First Nations Voice Elections

The Hon. L.A. HENDERSON (15:05): I seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking a question of the Attorney-General and Minister for Aboriginal Affairs regarding the First Nations Voice elections.

Leave granted.

The Hon. L.A. HENDERSON: Anecdotally, the opposition has heard that there was a low voter turnout in some booths on Saturday for the First Nations Voice elections. Can the minister advise how many voters polled at each booth on Saturday, and what the predicted voter turnout was?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector) (15:05): I thank the honourable member for her question. I don't have that information yet, but when it becomes available I am sure what can be made available will be.
