I refer to my previous answers. There will be an opportunity for parliament to determine many of these types of matters should the referendum succeed, but again I make the point that the design principles make very clear that Voice members would be able to be sanctioned or removed for serious misconduct, so that addresses the kinds of matters you're asking about now.

I might just add that Senator McCarthy made a good point. I encourage those who do think that the design principles booklet is too simplistic—I think those were your words—and lacking in substance to read the lengthy and very detailed Calma and Langton report, which your government commissioned. The detail is all there if you want more than the design principles.
