For the benefit of the Hansard record, we're actually on a different topic now. We're now talking about the design principles, so I ask you again: how will the government guarantee that Voice representatives are not aligned with any political party? It clearly states that the first design principle is, 'The Voice will give independent advice to the parliament and government.' How does the government guarantee that this is truly independent advice and that Voice representatives are not aligned with any political party?
