I just have a statement of clarification. Yesterday Senator Nampijinpa Price asked a question about the Central Land Council full council meeting on 17 September 2024. In my answer I explained that I was aware of the meeting. I also explained I was not aware of any motion to remove the CLC chair prior to the meeting. Senator Price incorrectly asserted in the Senate that I was not aware of the outcome of the meeting by 2 pm on 18 September 2024. This does not reflect my response to her question during question time, and I encourage the senator to ensure she quotes me appropriately.
