6:20Now PlayingNicholas and John discuss why necessary detail about the Voice to Parliament seems lacking, even in the wake of Prime Minister Albanese's referendum question announcement. Nicholas suspects the experience of the 1999 Republic referendum has informed the decision to reveal little detail about the model that will be legislated for until after the referendum has occurred. Is this in keeping with the successful consensus-driven model our Constitution was founded upon?
This conversation is a contribution to the reasoned public debate that must surely take place as the referendum to embed a Voice to Parliament into the Constitution draws closer.
