Libertarian MP David Limbrick says he will oppose Victoria’s proposed state-based Indigenous Voice, concerned at the cost taxpayers will bear.

The upper house MP’s comments come after Labor revealed its Statewide Treaty Bill, which aims to embed a “Voice” that will act as an advisory body to the parliament.
