My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Indigenous Australians, Senator Gallagher. I refer to a report in the Australian Financial Review on 6 February 2023 which highlighted allegations of corruption, threats and intimidation on the part of decision-makers leading Aboriginal organisations incorporated under the C(ATSI) Act or registered as charities receiving millions of dollars of taxpayer funding to deliver Indigenous disability services. Is the minister aware that operators involved in these allegations are connected with multiple Indigenous organisations, sitting on boards or as part of senior management, with responsibility for millions of dollars of taxpayer funded grants and are allowed to continue to do so while being investigated by multiple government departments in relation to alleged fraud and misappropriation?
