"But consultation and respect are not relevant, Scott, that's just virtue-signalling in it purest form." ........ it was adopted as LibNat policy following the Agreement the Morrison Gov and state/territory Govs signed in 2020.
the Productivity Comm. review provides the rationale behind my claims that the Voice will likely result in reduced costs and improved productivity through health, education etc and other Closing the Gap improvements. the last CtG report demonstrated the failures of the Morrison Gov. the PC review is scathing of the lack of actions on the Agreement to improve CTG conditions. and you call it "garbage" and "a lie". very disappointing, but I respect your opinion.
you keep asking the same question even though I've already answered this many times over. I don't understand your agitation.
however, because I've read many of your posts that are sensible, I figure you must still not understand the important difference., So.....
the Voice will never have the power to compel Gov to "do as they say" (my words, but the gist of the argument that Govs will be compelled). but any Gov which is concerned with wellbeing and productivity improvement will consider such representations and decide for themselves on elements of those representations/advices and adopt, modify or reject such as they think best.
the constitutional placement is considered necessary by the Uluru statement mob. this is because all previous efforts to provide Govs with advices on how better to manage Aboriginal problems, eg in remote communities and CTG priorities (see the productivity comm review), have been abolished. they want to ensure that a Voice to parliament will not be abolished due to ideological reasons or because the Voice does not suit the Gov agenda.
the legislation can be altered by each successive Gov, but the body will remain.
the constitutional placement can be reversed by any Gov IF they go to the people with a referendum to remove the Voice from the constitution. certainly this would be a major accomplishment if they choose to go down this path, but no greater than the current referendum.
I hope this answers your question adequately..... if it doesn't please ask again and I will answer, but I do ask that you refrain from abusive terms Treefer.
