Social Security and Other Legislation Amendment (Technical Changes No. 2) Bill 2025

Senator THORPE (Victoria—Independent VIC Whip) (12:31): I challenge that: it's on advice from the police, who are violent towards Aboriginal people in this country. So it is a very, very dangerous addition to the legislation. Minister, I want you to guarantee that Aboriginal women and Aboriginal people will not be targeted.

I want your guarantee that we will not be targeted as part of this late addition. Guarantee it!
