00:00So part of my role will be to go out and talk to kids and get their voices.
00:06We can bring those back, we can do enquiries, make recommendations to Parliament around
00:12the systems from the voices of the children.
00:17What's really exciting is that bringing those young voices into Parliament to hear about
00:25the systemic injustices that are happening and what they need and want to see changed.
00:31I think that's significant that we don't have that outside noise.
00:34We're able to go forward and make our own agenda, make those recommendations to Parliament.
00:41We can push further than we've ever done before.
00:44This is going to be a fully independent commission that can look into systemic injustices wherever
00:51we see fit.
00:52Look, I think there's a lot of things we can check, particularly if we look at youth
00:57incarceration and child removal.
00:59We can always look at those numbers.
01:01That will take a long term because it's been in place for a while.
01:05So over the five years we hope to make a dent, particularly in those areas.
01:09I think one of the biggest things we want to see, not that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander
01:14kids aren't thriving, we want to see more kids thriving.
01:17We want to work in partnership with other commissioners, with other bodies, so that we can make great
01:24change.
01:25And what we'll see is Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander kids thriving in this country.
01:29.
01:38Great.
