I thank the member for Hume for his question. The Voice will be involved in giving advice on things that directly affect Indigenous people. That has been written, that has been spoken about and that is what will happen. I have outlined that the priorities that I have are health, education, jobs and housing. They are the issues that are raised with me repeatedly. The Voice is going to be a representative body that will provide advice on Indigenous Australians—provide advice.
