We have so far recovered over 18 bodies.
However, the report found further work was needed to ensure people in remote areas, older people, the LGBTQI community and Australians from culturally and linguistically diverse communities could access the payment.Disability advocacy groups say more can be done to ensure no one is disadvantaged while voting in the upcoming Indigenous Voice to Parliament referendum.
