If the referendum is successful, Senator, then I would dearly like to be able to see that those people who are living in our regional and remote areas of Australia are very much represented, whether they speak one Aboriginal language or six Aboriginal languages, and I would hope to think that, if we were successful in the referendum, that we could have this conversation in the kind of legislation that we would put going forward.
