Linda Burney (Barton, Australian Labor Party, Minister for Indigenous Australians) Share this | Hansard source

I thank the member for her question. This side of the House is laser focused on the one thing that we have spoken about, and that is the referendum on 14 October. We are appealing to the Australian people, with thousands and thousands and thousands of other Australians, to recognise Aboriginal people in the Constitution. And as I said yesterday, this is good for all of us. It is also about creating a Voice enshrined by the Constitution to get better advice so that we make sure that what we do in terms of Aboriginal affairs changes the terrible life trajectory that so many people have.
