ABORIGINAL HERITAGE
LEGISLATION AMENDMENT AND REPEAL BILL 2023 — IMPLEMENTATION
514. Mr R.S. LOVE to the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs:
I have a supplementary question. How
can be there any confidence in the minister's capacity to oversee the
education of the community coming hot off the back of the botching of his last
round?

AnswerView source ↗

I will do what needs to be done to
ensure that those who do not understand the act that has been in existence
since 1972 do understand it, and everyone said that they have worked with that
and they understood it —
Mr R.S. Love interjected.
The SPEAKER : Order, please!
Dr A.D. BUTI : The community
has been consulted on the amendments being made. There will be further
consultation with community, and if education needs to be rolled out, it will
be rolled out.
