00:00Winds of change in the Northern Territory.
00:05But as a new Chief Minister steps into the spotlight,
00:08traditional owners in Central Australia want it shone on local issues.
00:13We need support with administration and a full inquiry
00:20into the Central Land Council.
00:23There has been too many breaches of the Aboriginal Land Rights Act
00:28in the Northern Territory.
00:30Their calls to review the Central Land Council's operations
00:34have won the support of Senator Price,
00:36who would like to investigate entities across the Territory.
00:39We also need an inquiry into land councils and statutory authorities
00:44so that we can actually start closing the gap
00:47and improving the lives of traditional owners right across the country.
00:51Also under scrutiny in Central Australia,
00:54the $250 million federal support package
00:57aimed at improving the lives of Centralians.
01:00Announced 18 months ago, the CLP says it's not returning results.
01:05This is a service provider haven
01:07and given it's a service provider haven,
01:09then lives should be improved, but that's not happening.
01:12So whoever's receiving the money needs to be held to account
01:16for failure to close that gap.
01:18But it's only day three of the new reality
01:21and first on Leah Finocchiaro's agenda is shaping herself a cabinet.
01:25We need to make sure our strong public service
01:28is structured in a way that can deliver on our commitments.
01:31So we've been very focused on reducing crime,
01:34rebuilding our economy and restoring our lifestyle
01:37and you can expect to see a government
01:39that looks in a shape to deliver that.
01:41The interim CLP government will be sworn in tomorrow morning
01:44to deadly silence from the Labor Party
01:47as they struggle to find the words to describe this weekend's loss.
