The head of Queensland’s truth-telling inquiry has accused the Crisafulli government of setting relations with Indigenous people back “for a very long time” as it moves to repeal the state’s historic pathway to treaty legislation in its first bill since winning last month’s state election.
The legislation is scheduled to be debated urgently on Thursday night, without a parliamentary inquiry, and looks certain to be the first passed by the new parliament.
