Sky News host Peta Credlin has debunked Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's claim the Uluru Statement from the Heart can be read in 'about two minutes' after obtaining a lengthy document under Freedom of Information.
“in full” which calls for"Voice, Treaty, Truth".
Mr Albanese has repeatedly spruiked the Uluru Statement as a"two minute read" one-page document"that invites all Australians to walk together to a better future". But Credlin has revealed that is not quite the case after the government was forced to release the full 26-page statement under Freedom of Information.
Another extract reads: “By making agreements at the highest level, the negotiation process with the Australian government allows First Nations to express our sovereignty". Credlin said page 23 of the document stated that parliament would begin establishing the commission before the Voice is legislated, which she suggested is already occurring by"stealth".
"They have already spent $900,000 to date, and yet on every day this week, the Indigenous Minister has refused to answer any questions, in the parliament, about the Makarrata Commission or where this money has been spent." The Prime Minister has committed to implementing all elements of the Uluru Statement “in full” which calls for"Voice, Treaty, Truth".

Voice to make sure discussion on treaty will ‘stay’ on ‘state level’Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says the Voice to Parliament will make sure discussion on treaty legislation will “stay” on the “state level”, according to Sky News Senior Political Reporter Trudy McIntosh. “There were some semantics in the argument he put this morning on the ABC, he’s making the case that it’s not inconsistent to say that Labor supports the Uluru Statement from the Heart in full,” she told Sky News host Peta Credlin. “Because he says that that doesn’t explicitly refer to the Commonwealth having to be involved in making treaties, he says that that’s happening at the state level, and that’s where it’s going to stay. “He also seemed to indicate in the question on that interview that for the first term, no Labor is not involved in treaties at all.”
