Indigenous Affairs

It's a while since my last effort - I am not a great "blogger"
Do you share my concerns with the way the federal geovernment is intervening into Indigenous Affairs in the N.T.?
Apart from being heavy handed, it seems so ill conceived. Talk about policy on the run!
And why now?
These issues have been crying out for attention for a very long time.
And, until recently Federal funds have been reduced, cutting programmes that address issues of abuse, disadvantage and so on.
In such an area of desperate need we have too many levels of Government involved, to much political point scoring.
I hope that out of all of this current activity sensitive and sensible programmes will evolve that will meet the real needs of Indigenous Communities right accross Australia.
