Hey guys i got a TAFE assignment due tommorrow, its a report and it requires a survey etc. i was supposed to survey 25 people including 1 expert (a person who either works with Indigenous Australians or in the Australian Legal System). But yeah.. kinda left it to the last minute. So if any of yous wanna answer my survey then it'd be greatly appreciated, it looks kinda big but it'd only take a second, most stuff are yes/no responses. Oh and i cut out the introduction - educational purposes only, details are confidential etc etc.
