  • Name changed from “a constitutionally enshrined First Nations Voice in parliament - EDIT IN PROGRESS” to “This policy has been replaced [Formerly: for a constitutionally enshrined First Nations Voice]”.

    Description changed from “NOTE: This policy has been marked as 'draft' while a reported inaccuracy is addressed. Currently, there appears to be a mismatch in how the votes have been attached (i.e., some appear to be about whether to have a referendum, rather than being on whether there should be a Voice). This will be sorted as soon as possible, likely by splitting the policy into two.” to “*** NOTE: Due to accuracy issues, this policy has now been replaced with the following two: (1) for a referendum on the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice at theyvoteforyou.org.au/policies/308 and (2) for implementing the Uluru Statement from the Heart in full at theyvoteforyou.org.au/policies/309 These two new policies have been created to better reflect the content of the divisions they are attached to. ***”.
