Voice referendum updates: Indigenous affairs policy after the nation votes No to Voice
  • 6 months ago
It's been a weekend of contemplation for campaigners on both sides of the referendum campaign after the nation voted against recognising First Nations People in the constitution and to establishing an Indigenous Voice to Parliament. An overwhelming majority of voters said 'no', including all the states plus the northern territory. The ACT is the only jurisdiction to have reached a majority 'Yes' vote. As another sitting week begins, the government is now under pressure to explain how it will advance indigenous affairs policy without the voice and map its path to healing a divided country.
