Ken Wyatt demands closure of Indigenous Procurement Policy amid contract concerns

Former Aboriginal affairs minister Ken Wyatt called for the Indigenous Procurement Policy to be shut down if ‘black cladding’ rorts continue to undermine genuine Aboriginal enterprises. He noted that half of contracts over $10,000 were awarded to just 11 businesses, raising concerns over the integrity of the program. Wyatt emphasized that true Indigenous partners must be actively involved in decision-making.
