Australia rejects proposal to recognise Aboriginal people in constitution

Design principles are not legislation, it seems you are unfamiliar with Parliamentary process.

Additionally he (Anthony Albanese) stated that if the referendum is successful, another process would be established to work on the final design, with a subsequent government produced information pamphlet stating that this process would involve Indigenous Australian communities, the Parliament and the broader community, with any legislation going through normal parliamentary scrutiny procedures.

The final design being the legislation.

I hope that clears things up for you.

🤦 well done champ. You successfully don’t understand process.

@Cypher@aussie.zone · 9 months ago

You claimed the legislation had been shown, it has not.

Your misinformation helps no one.

Except… That it had. No matter how much you wish your narrative to be real, you have no clue how the world works. 🤦

But, whatever. You want to stay ignorant and stupid, you do you.

Legislating the Voice is of course an option and something the government has committed to doing if the referendum is successful.

You should contact the ABC and provide them with a correction.

The government would prefer to take the concept of a Voice and constitutional recognition for First Nations people to a referendum and have the actual machinery of the body put forward in legislation.

If the referendum passes:

Consultation with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, the Parliament and the broader public to design the Voice

Introduce a Voice establishment bill into the Parliament

Once Parliament approves the legislation to establish the Voice, the legislation comes into effect and the work to set up the Voice begins.
