From Nine To Noon, 9:50 am on 3 August 2022

Australia correspondent Bernard Keane joins Susie to talk about Prime Minister's Anthony Albanese's support for a referendum on how to give indigenous Australians a voice in Parliament.

He'll also look at moves to curb gas exports amid a domestic shortfall and skyrocketing prices, and from spy to sparky - the mystery of the Somerton Man appears to have been solved.

The Australian government plans to ask the population whether its Indigenous peoples should be recognised in the country's constitution, by referendum.
