'Day One' of the Sit-in was successful in gaining world attention, due to government 'spill' being moved forward by a day. The media and the government were not fully prepared but First nations people have been planning this day for a month. Their demands were presented to Nigel Scullion, Minister for Indigenous Affairs by sit-in delegates and a copy was also given to Bill Shorten, Leader of the opposition. Scullion later came to the Aboriginal Embassy and met with protesters.
