Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:24): Given I'm asked about the Voice, I would like to acknowledge, if I may, the ten leaders from Empowered Communities who are in the President's Gallery today as part of their visit to Canberra to advocate, from the grassroots, for constitutional recognition through the Voice to Parliament. Senator Hanson, I appreciate your position on the Voice. I think you have made that clear, and probably no answer I will give you will satisfy you, because you have made your opposition to this clear. I would first make the point that the Voice is about two things. It is about recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in our Constitution, and it is about consultation with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people on matters that affect them. In terms of the various aspects of detail, I would make two points. First, the referendum working group have already offered principles of what the Voice would look like. The second point I make is: if Australians see fit to change our Constitution in the way I hope they do, you, alongside every other member and Senator in this parliament, will have a say in how that Voice operates, because it is parliament that will legislate. There will be consultation and there will be legislation—just as you have a right, at the moment, to respond to and deal with legislation that comes before the chamber. The PRESIDENT: Senator Hanson, on a point of order? Senator Hanson: Thank you, President. The point of order is on a matter of relevance. More than half the time the minister has to respond to my question has passed. I asked directly about what matters don't affect Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. She hasn't even touched on that whatsoever. It's a matter of relevance. The PRESIDENT: Thank you, Senator Hanson. You've raised a point of order. You asked at the beginning of your question a broad question about the Voice. You referred to comments the Prime Minister had made, so Minister Wong is being relevant. Senator WONG: Senator Hanson, I am trying to respond very honestly, because the reality is those matters will be the subject of a discussion in this parliament and a discussion with the community, should Australians vote for a constitutional recognition. Senator Hanson interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order, Senator Hanson! Senator Hanson, order! You have asked you question. Senator Hanson interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Hanson, I have called you to order. It's an order, not a request. The minister is answering your question. You may not like the answer, but she's answering your question. Please continue, Minister Wong. Senator WONG: Senator Hanson—through you, President—what Australians are being asked to vote on is a principle of whether there should be a voice. The detail will come from the parliament and the government that is elected by the people, and it is for the parliament and future parliaments to determine the detail of how it works, including the issues that you describe. The PRESIDENT: Senator Hanson, a first supplementary question.
