My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Wong. In August 2021, in a joint release with Minister Burney, the Prime Minister said:

Labor will deliver on a national process for Treaty-making and Truth-telling …

Yesterday, on Insiders, the Prime Minister said this:

Well, Treaty is occurring. There's 400 Indigenous nations in this country. So, we're not talking about centralised operations here.

Minister, does the Albanese government support the Commonwealth engaging in treaty-making with Indigenous people at a national level?
