1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:05,720
Speaker 1: Already and this is this da this is the Daily OS. Oh,

2
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:06,800
Speaker 1: now it makes.

3
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:17,960
Speaker 2: Sense, Good morning and welcomes the Daily OS. It's Tuesday,

4
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:19,120
Speaker 2: the nineteenth of March.

5
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:20,440
Speaker 3: I'm Sam, I'm Billy.

6
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:24,759
Speaker 2: Over the weekend, First Nations People in South Australia determines

7
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:29,160
Speaker 2: the composition of Australia's first ever Indigenous Voice to Parliament

8
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 2: advisory body. Indigenous voters in South Australia have cast their

9
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 2: ballots for the state's Voice to Parliament from.

10
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 1: Ten am to three pm on Saturday. We saw a

11
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 1: steady stream of First Nations voters to have their say

12
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:44,239
Speaker 1: and to vote for candidates they wanted to see represent

13
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 1: them when it comes to advising the SA government.

14
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 2: The Voice will be a group of First Nations representatives

15
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 2: advising the South Australian Government on matters of importance to

16
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 2: their communities. This is a big moment for the country.

17
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 2: So we're going to unpack how the South Australian Voice,

18
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 2: how it came to be, and what influence it might have.

19
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,480
Speaker 2: But first Billy, what is making headlines today?

20
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 1: It is now official Parliament has voted in favor of

21
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: increasing paid parental leave to twenty six weeks. Over the

22
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 1: next three years. It means the entitlement will increase from

23
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 1: twenty to twenty two weeks of paid leave from the

24
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: first of July this year, before increasing again in twenty

25
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: twenty five and twenty twenty six. Minister for Family and

26
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 1: Social Services Amanda Rishworth said the change is expected to

27
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: initially benefit around one hundred and eighty thousand families. The

28
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 1: increased leaf policy is intended to encourage both parents to

29
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: take leave and for partners to give more support to

30
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:43,040
Speaker 1: the birthing parent.

31
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 2: Posting a letter is about to get more expensive after

32
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 2: the National Consumer Watchdog approved an Odds Post proposal to

33
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 2: increase mail prices by twenty five percent from the third

34
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 2: of April. Posting a small letter will cost you a

35
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 2: dollar fifty that's up from a dollar while large letters

36
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 2: will cost nearly one dollar more to post. They're now

37
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 2: going to be four dollars fifty. Concession card holders such

38
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 2: as welfare recipients and pensioners, will still be able to

39
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 2: access half priced stamps, meaning they shouldn't be impacted by

40
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 2: the price hike.

41
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: Apple will be forced to answer questions about the safety

42
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 1: of its air tag devices in a US court after

43
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: the tech giants' attempts to overturn a case failed. A

44
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,239
Speaker 1: group of thirty eight people have launched legal action against Apple,

45
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: claiming they were stalked by offenders who used air tags

46
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 1: to track their location and movements. Apple claims the air

47
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 1: tag's design does not breach any safety or legal regulations.

48
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,079
Speaker 2: And today's good news, Researchers in the US have discovered

49
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 2: a way to recycle discarded wood into ink for three

50
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 2: D printing. The team at Rice University in Texas have

51
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 2: been developing ways to use three D printing to create

52
00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 2: sustainable furniture and reduce waste. They were able to reprocess

53
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 2: thrown out wood to create a miniature table and chair.

54
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 2: Researchers will now undertake further experimental investigations before plans to

55
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 2: scale up the process.

56
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 1: Okay, sam So, Australia has its first ever Indigenous Voice

57
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 1: to Parliament at a state level in South Australia. But

58
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 1: some people might be confused because we had a national

59
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: vote for a federal voice to Parliament last year. So

60
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 1: can we start by you explaining how we got from

61
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 1: there to this.

62
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 2: That was one of the biggest news moments of twenty

63
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 2: twenty three. We had a national referendum to enshrine a

64
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 2: voice in the Australian Constitution and that failed, and that

65
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 2: means there'll be no voice at a national level, at

66
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 2: least not one that's constitutionally enshrined. But that has no

67
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 2: impact on what state and territory governments can do individually.

68
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 2: So now we're in a situation where South Australia has

69
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 2: become the first state to have a voice to Parliament

70
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 2: at a state level, and the.

71
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 1: General sentiment of what this body will be will be

72
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 1: quite similar, right that it will be his advisory body

73
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 1: to speak to the government about issues that impact First

74
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 1: Nations people in South Australia exactly.

75
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 2: It has a lot of the same DNA and I

76
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 2: think that's really important to remember here.

77
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,359
Speaker 1: Now before you explain what this will look like in practice,

78
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: can you just take us back a bit. How did

79
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: South Australia get to this point.

80
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 2: Well, they actually passed legislation establishing the voice last year

81
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 2: in March, so before the nation voted against a federal voice.

82
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 2: But if you go back one step further, you can

83
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 2: go back to twenty twenty two when current Premier Peter

84
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 2: Malinowskis won the state election and when he won, he

85
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 2: committed to establishing a First Nation's Voice in the context

86
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 2: of it being part of the Ularu's Statement from the Heart,

87
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 2: a key pillar of that document.

88
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,280
Speaker 1: And can you just to remind us what is the

89
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 1: Ulary Statement from the Heart.

90
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, so if you go back even further than that,

91
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 2: you can go back to twenty seventeen, and that's when

92
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 2: the ULARUS Statement from the Heart was endorsed and delivered

93
00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 2: by First Nations leaders and it basically outlined this path

94
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 2: forward for recognizing First Nations people in the constitution. So

95
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 2: it was designed for reform at a federal level, at

96
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 2: a national level, but it also could apply at a

97
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 2: state level. Now, when we had the national referendum in October,

98
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 2: South Australia was actually the only state where every federal

99
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 2: electorate voted no. Now this vote didn't actually have an

100
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 2: impact on South Australia's plans, but in terms of public

101
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 2: support it obviously took a hit. It actually prompted a

102
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 2: One Nation state politician to table a bill in South

103
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 2: Australian Parliament that would repeal the creation of a South

104
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 2: Australian Voice. Now that vote didn't pass, and the formation

105
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,720
Speaker 2: of this state voice pushed ahead. And all of that

106
00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 2: brings us to last weekend where First Nations South Australians

107
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 2: voted to pick members of this inaugural voice body.

108
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 1: So, just to recap, the South Australian government introduced this

109
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: law to have a voice to Parliament at a state level.

110
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 1: When it came to the NASH vote, South Australians quite

111
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 1: convincingly said no to a voice of Parliament at a

112
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 1: federal level, but that didn't impact the fact that there

113
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: was already this law to have a voice at a

114
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: state level exactly.

115
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 2: And I'd almost imagine them as two parallel tracks, and

116
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:18,839
Speaker 2: one didn't really affect the other directly. Nonetheless, though we're

117
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 2: here where we have a state body in South Australia

118
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 2: that's now becoming formed.

119
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: Got it. And so now that we have this state body,

120
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 1: how will it actually work?

121
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,160
Speaker 2: So why don't I explain what the actual body will

122
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 2: look like first and then we can go into how

123
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 2: it'll operate. So the Voice to Parliament will be a

124
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 2: two tiered system, and in that it'll have forty six

125
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 2: local voices that's their official title. And within those forty

126
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 2: six local voices, there'll be twelve who are also state voices,

127
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,359
Speaker 2: and so local voices are going to be tasked with

128
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 2: speaking to members of First Nations community about matters that

129
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 2: are relevant to them and to share those viewpoints with

130
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 2: the State voices. Date voices then convey those messages, whether

131
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 2: they be concerns or endorsements of their local communities, directly

132
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,479
Speaker 2: to Parliament and the Government, and it will consult and

133
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 2: advise on matters significant to First Nations people in the state.

134
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 1: And so we're talking about it today because over the weekend,

135
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 1: First Nations people in South Australia voted for who they

136
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 1: wanted to represent them in the local and State voice.

137
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 2: Not quite, it's a little confusing, but basically, over the weekend,

138
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 2: enrolled First Nations voters from South Australia will pick who

139
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 2: they want as their local voices. Those local voices will

140
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 2: then go and pick twelve people within that group to

141
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 2: be State voices. And so within the Local Voices level

142
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 2: there's representatives from six different regions across the state. Five

143
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 2: of those regions get seven members each and then the

144
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 2: highly populated Central Region and that includes Adelaide will have

145
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 2: eleven members. And like I said, those local voices in

146
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 2: each region will then pick two members amongst them to

147
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 2: represent them as state var voices. So that's what First

148
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 2: Nations people voted for over the weekend, But the counting

149
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 2: of those votes isn't going to start for a couple

150
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 2: of weeks. It will start on the twenty fifth of March,

151
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 2: and that's to allow for the return of postal votes

152
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 2: from rural and remote areas.

153
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: Okay, so the voting started over the weekend, but the

154
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 1: actual counting of that vote won't start yet. But take

155
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 1: us through how will this body interact with the government

156
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: once it is formed.

157
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 2: So you've got this body made up of local voices

158
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 2: and state voices, and that body will be notified of

159
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 2: legislation that's introduced to the South Australian Parliament and it

160
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 2: can present reports to Parliament on matters concerning First Nations communities. Now,

161
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 2: the Parliament itself can actually proactively ask the Voice body

162
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 2: to report on the implications of legislation. They can also

163
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 2: ask them to kind of shape debate that happens within

164
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 2: Parliament and report back on voting decisions. And the Voice

165
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 2: itself has to report to the Parliament as well. They

166
00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 2: have to provide a written report and an address to

167
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 2: parliam detailing their work over a twelve month period. And

168
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 2: there are in built ways for the Cabinet, which is

169
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 2: the senior members of the South Australian government, to meet

170
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 2: with the State Voice body and that will happen at

171
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 2: about twice a year, and this will allow the Voice

172
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 2: to ask questions of Cabinet and to be notified about

173
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,760
Speaker 2: upcoming announcements and plans. Really give it some synergy these

174
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 2: two massive structures. But that's not all. The State Voice

175
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 2: is also going to meet with leaders of each public

176
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 2: department within the state. So it's a pretty comprehensive workload

177
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 2: and it'll be interesting to see. I mean, this hasn't

178
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 2: been tried before. It'll be interesting to see how it

179
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 2: pans out over this first twelve months.

180
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 1: It's interesting hearing all of the detail because obviously when

181
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: the nation went through this process last year, the big

182
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 1: conversation at the time was about the lack of detail.

183
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 1: And so to hear you list out all of the

184
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 1: different things about how this will actually work, it's really

185
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: interesting to see how it could actually work in process.

186
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 2: It would have been interesting to have the National referendum

187
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 2: again had this body been introduced twelve months before.

188
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, once we actually see how it works and if

189
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 1: it does benefit the state.

190
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely.

191
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 1: Another big talking point from the National Voice referendum was

192
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 1: the difference between a constitutionally enshrined voice, which wouldn't be

193
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: able to be changed unless there was another referendum, and

194
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 1: a body designed by legislation, which can be taken away

195
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 1: if a new government comes in and doesn't like it.

196
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 1: So between those two things, where does this body fall?

197
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 2: I feel like I always get caught with the legal

198
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 2: questions on this podcast. So this one came about through legislation,

199
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 2: and you're right. It is different to the body that

200
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 2: was proposed in the Federal Voice model and that would

201
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,839
Speaker 2: have been enshrined in the constitution if the referendum succeeded.

202
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 2: This one is designed in legislation. And that's also why

203
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 2: there wasn't a statewide vote. You know, South Australians wouldn't

204
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 2: vote on road rules or a new trade policy that

205
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 2: the state has, or new ways of the hospital can run.

206
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 2: It's the same thing here. Now. The difficulty, of course

207
00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 2: with it being done through legislation is that it can

208
00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 2: be repealed if a new government comes in then they

209
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 2: don't like the voice and they think it should be

210
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 2: taken away. So just like a government can pass a

211
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 2: law to introduce the Voice, another government under this system

212
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 2: can come in and actually pass the law to cancel

213
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 2: the Voice.

214
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,840
Speaker 1: So obviously this policy was introduced by the current government,

215
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: so they are therefore unlikely to repeal it.

216
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was an election promise exactly.

217
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,680
Speaker 1: But what do we know about the opposition? Do they

218
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 1: support this voice?

219
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 2: Well, the South Australian Liberal Opposition did not support the

220
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 2: establishment of the State Voice last year. They voiced their

221
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 2: concerns around a rushed process and flaws in the design

222
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 2: of the advisory body. Now, we reached out to the

223
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 2: opposition leader. His name is David Spears, not the journalist,

224
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 2: not the journalists, and he told TDA that he believes

225
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 2: many South Australians are confused about the Voice after the

226
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 2: State had what he said was such a strong rejection

227
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,079
Speaker 2: of the national proposal. Now, in terms of whether they

228
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 2: would repeal the body if they got into government, Spears

229
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 2: told TDAS that they would keep a close eye on

230
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 2: the state based Voice and if it's not working, we'll

231
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 2: be more than willing to amend its operation or even

232
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,080
Speaker 2: abolish it entirely. So they have kept that option open.

233
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 2: He did talk about what the opposition would do to

234
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 2: help South Australian First Nations people, and he said that

235
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,199
Speaker 2: the Liberal Party is focused on what he described as

236
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 2: practical actions to improve outcomes for Aboriginal and Tyrestrait Islander

237
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 2: people and that they'd like to see an order of

238
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 2: the funding for programs intended to close the gap because

239
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 2: the current approach is not on track as we know

240
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 2: to meet its targets.

241
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: That's all we have time for today. Thank you so
