Portfolio — 11 May 2026
Tribune’s note
Minister McCarthy's sole public activity on 11 May was a statement of condolence for Kumanjayi Little Baby, addressed to the Warlpiri and Gurindji families and to Senator Nampijinpa Price. She documented national vigils held from Yuendumu to Melbourne, describing a "sea of pink" that marked community mourning, and named parliamentarians and officials from multiple parties who attended.
The statement positions the portfolio's public posture around cultural respect and cross-community solidarity in responding to Indigenous loss.
