A lesson in making sure the rounds of consultation and representation were thoroughly conducted. Questions about how to fit in with other laws. Issues on how to work with Congress.

It outlines what matters to Australian citizens and what amendments apply to the Constitution. And as the Prime Minister said, we will hold a referendum to include the voices of Indigenous Peoples and the voices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in the Australian Constitution.

Linda Barney talking now:

We are doing the necessary work to get this voice right. I can assure you that things are going well. I am taking my time. We are open for consultation.

And we’re very careful about getting on track, and we’re very careful about getting the work done, to make sure this voice is the voice people want. A referendum will be held at the end of this year.

It’s no longer academic. it’s actually happening.

It will see the country become a better country – a better country where we … recognize Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders simply for their long existing and continuing heritage and culture. [and] Do it in a way that gives greater fairness to those of us who are constantly making decisions about us, and give us a voice in those decisions.

Mayo said it will release wording in the coming weeks.
