I bring to Senator Cash's attention that the actual design principles are a result also of the esteemed work of Professor Marcia Langton and Professor Tom Calma, so it's not just a glossy brochure; it's as a result of the hard work that your government began in terms of the Langton-Calma report. We took that on through the process of the Referendum Working Group and the Referendum Engagement Group. Many of those members and all of those who gathered at Uluru would consider that gathering to have been a convention.
