Govt announces new Indigenous council

Extract from Australian Broadcasting Corporation - ABC Online, on 6 November 2004

The new National Indigenous Council, to be headed by Perth magistrate Dr Sue Gordon, has been unveiled by the Federal Government.

Minister for Indigenous Affairs Amanda Vanstone says the council is not a replacement for ATSIC and the members do not represent any region, organisation or agency.

The council members will advise the Government on ways to improve the delivery of services to Indigenous Australians.

AFL footballer Adam Goodes is also on the 14 person council.
