The referendum question that was put to voters in Australia on October 14, 2023, was whether to alter the Constitution to recognize the First Peoples of Australia by establishing an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice. The proposed constitutional amendment was introduced into Parliament through a Constitution Alteration Bill on March 30, 2023, and the Parliament passed the Constitution Alteration Bill on June 19, 2023. The question on the ballot paper was: "A Proposed Law: to alter the Constitution to recognise the First Peoples of Australia by establishing an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice. Do you approve this proposed alteration?". When voters received a ballot paper at the referendum, they were instructed to write Yes if they agreed with the proposed change to the Constitution, or No if they did not agree.
