A bipartisan committee will be created to develop legislation for a Voice to Parliament if a 'Yes' vote is successful on October 14. The proposed committee would be jointly led by one representative from Labor and one from the Coalition. This would give everyone involved a say in deciding how a Voice would work in practice. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese believes this would encourage both sides to work constructively and give the Voice its best chance of success. “If ‘Yes’ is successful on October 14, what I’ve said to Peter Dutton is we’ll sit down and we’ll talk through the process of how it can be moved forward,” Mr Albanese said.
