[QUOTE="Malleeboy, post: 77358778, member: 436627"] For those interested this is Frank Brennan's SJ wording for the Voice in the constitutions. “There shall be an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice with such structure and functions as the Parliament deems necessary to facilitate consultation prior to the making of special laws with respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, and with such other functions as the Parliament determines.” This would deliver a voice but one that is only constitutionally guaranteed a voice, where the laws directly only impact Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders but allowed by the parliament to have a broader say as the parliament decides. It can only speak to Parliament not the executive. This is a voice I could support. FYI the current voice could make recommendations to the GG on use of the reserve powers, to the Federal Executive Council on all matters, it could also likely be able to address the military and public service directly.
