My question is to the Prime Minister. Yesterday, the Prime Minister told parliament that the 'apology to the stolen generation will never be forgotten'. Yet John Howard's government, the government the Prime Minister was a member of, spent years opposed to an apology to the stolen generations. Will the Prime Minister avoid the mistakes of the past, proudly stand on the right side of history and reconsider his opposition to the Uluru Statement from the Heart and an Indigenous voice to parliament?
