Minister, today is Closing the Gap Day, and we are nowhere near closing the gap. Last week marked five years since the Christchurch mosque massacre by an Australian white supremacist, yet we don't even have a national antiracism strategy yet. Minister, will the government follow the Greens in establishing a standalone antiracism portfolio in cabinet to reckon with the seriousness of racism in this country?
