When it is pointed out that what Liddle is describing sounds like the voice, the Liberal senator says:
No, because we don’t have the detail about who is going to be on that voice and how that’s going to work.
When you actually consider that funds for health, housing, jobs and actually come from Canberra and assent to the states and territories, there is a lot more accountability than not just sits at the Commonwealth level, but also in the states and territories and in those very organisations that are actually charged to deliver change, not just putting a grant application and deliver the same same but deliver the change.
So that’s why I support that proposition much more and I want to make sure that people who are experts in the particular area of focus are actually the right people at the table.
