The moment when Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese announced the wording of the question on the Indigenous Voice referendum in Parliament is now considered historic. However, the Liberal-National Coalition insists that the wording still raises key questions about the legal authority and details of the advisory body.
It was a day he had been preparing for more than a decade.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese blinked to hold back tears as he revealed the wording of the question to be put to the Australian people that could constitutionally enshrine the Indigenous Voice in Parliament.
The wording was decided after the Referendum Working Group met with the Prime Minister and other key ministers on the evening of 22 March, delivering their final recommendation.
