Northern Territory Coalition senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price says political leaders need to "use their ears" rather than implement an Indigenous Voice to Parliament, tying the current crisis in Alice Springs to a failure to listen to the concerns of remote communities.
Senator Price says she holds concerns about how the $250 million funding package to address alcohol-related issues in Alice Springs will be spent. "Because no matter how much money you throw at this situation, it's not going to work if it's just a bandaid solution, which is what … they're going to do with $250 million," she said.
