Sourced positions
Each position is the member's own stated view or vote, supported by the listed sources. The badge says what kind of source backs it — official record (Hansard, a parliament, a government or an electoral commission), own statement (their own site or their party's), news report (journalism or a third-party organisation) or encyclopedia. That is a statement about the evidence, not about how much we believe it. This page records public statements and conduct only — see methodology.

As NT Minister for Children and Families, Cahill said it 'defies logic' that the NT's current child protection legislation does not mention child safety, stating 'above all else, the safety of children is what counts most' and that 'if we can't guarantee the safety of a child, it is absolutely paramount that we put that child somewhere safe'; she criticised an 'absolute reluctance' to remove children from Aboriginal families. This is a stated position.
