    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    As the Voice referendum campaign grinds towards its final week, there’s at least now agreement on one thing: The current system isn’t delivering for Indigenous Australians.

    Six months ago, when the Liberal party room resolved to support a No vote, Dutton’s preferred alternative was to create local and regional Voice bodies in legislation.

    This week, Dutton settled on a far simpler solution for tackling the problems of entrenched Indigenous disadvantage: Jacinta Nampijinpa Price.

    The shadow minister’s main idea appears to be a “forensic audit” of money spent on First Nations people to prevent waste.

    Beyond holding yet another review, the opposition leader says he will have “announcements to make in relation to other policies” to deal with Indigenous disadvantage, but only after the referendum.
