MODERATORS
This is misleading, the Voice is not one person nor is it "in parliament". It is a permanent advisory body that can make recommendations to Parliament and/or government. If you are confused on the difference, just look at the name; it is a Voice to Parliament, not a Voice in Parliament.
Fair enough on it being a board rather than a single position, the intent is still the same, it's a way for indigenous issues to be presented directly to parliament without being filtered by existing politicians.
