My question is to the Minister for Indigenous Australians, Senator McCarthy. Minister, while your government was distracted by the Voice, routine business in the portfolio fell away. The Community Development Program will not be replaced this term, Aboriginal Benefits Account grants were paused and grants from Aboriginal Investment NT have spent more time closed than open.

The Productivity Commission, in July last year, highlighted how the government does not even know how many Indigenous communities have access to clean drinking water. Minister, why are practical outcomes for Indigenous Australians not a priority for your government?
