SA Voice addresses parliament

On Wednesday Nov 27, the SA First Nations Voice to Parliament gave its inaugural address to the South Australian Parliament.

The historic address was given in the Legislative Council Chamber at Parliament House, with Presiding Member Leeroy Bilney speaking on behalf of the collective members of the SA Voice.

So far, the Voice has provided feedback on government legislation relating to early childhood development and preventative health, and is set to provide formal contribution to the royal commision into domestic, family and sexual violence.

AW attended the address, asking Minister for Aboriginal Affairs Kyam Maher to interview Mr Bilney following his speech.

We also spoke with Yawarrawarrka man and SA Voice representative, Rob Singleton, about his aspirations for the collective moving forward.
