WA Liberal Party leader Libby Mettam has accused the Federal Government of obfuscation and labelled the confusion over the state Aboriginal Heritage Laws in reasoning her decision to switch her support on the Voice.

Ms Mettam vehemently and passionately argued for the Yes vote in the Voice to Parliament Referendum in April, saying it was an important factor in Indigenous recognition.

Ms Mettam appeared on 6PR Mornings with Gary Adshead to try and defend her decision.
