Opposition leader Peter Dutton has accused the prime minister of starving voters of the information they need to make an informed decision on the Indigenous Voice to Parliament.
The 88-year-old said his earlier support for the No case had been uninformed and he had changed his view after talking with Aboriginal lawyer and Voice to Parliament supporter Eddie Synot.
The prime minister said it was clear while enough money had been spent on Indigenous affairs, it had not flowed through to where it was needed. Remote voting starts on Monday with 61 sites set up across the country, eventually covering 750 locations in the lead-up to the poll.
