Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price outlines her 'Advancement Movement' vision for Indigenous Affairs after the Voice referendum defeat.
Federal senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price has flagged a possible shake-up of land rights and a reduction in fly-in, fly-out workers in remote Indigenous communities if the opposition wins government.
This week, Newspoll found she was the second most-preferred candidate for Coalition leader, behind the current leader Peter Dutton, even though the likelihood of this happening politically is slim."I certainly would like to look at a different way of doing things," she told the ABC's 730 program. The federal government has since announced a replacement for CDP, known as the Remote Jobs and Economic Development Program .
"If that means we have to reform native title or the Land Rights Act, that's the direction we need to go to." Data released earlier this year shows that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children are already 10.5 times more likely to be in out-of-home care than non-Indigenous children.Last year, the federal opposition's call for a royal commission into child sexual abuse in Indigenous communities was criticised by children's advocates and medical bodies, who said the issue should not be politicised.
