The Joint Standing Committee on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Affairs has begun its inquiry into the Truth and Justice Commission Bill 2024, introduced in the Senate by the Greens’ Yamatji-Noongar Senator Dorinda Cox.

The bill was introduced by the Greens as a reaction to the unsuccessful Voice to Parliament referendum, which sought to establish an Indigenous “Voice” to Australia’s government.
