ABC news article: Voice to Parliament referendum pamphlets for Yes and No camps published by AEC
On the Australian Electoral Commission's website:
The Sydney Morning Herald / The Age newspapers have provided annotated versions of each pamphlet:
As has been observed in those annotation pages, there is no legal requirement for either of these pamphlets to be truthful or factual, and there is no obligation for the AEC to fact-check them (in fact, the AEC is legally restrained from commenting on those pamphlets in any way - its role is restricted to disseminating those pamphlets, because it must stay neutral).

I realised I relied on Reddit a lot for my news sources, but I generally meant to get my news closer to the source of possible, even before deleting my account. I already follow ISW, but that's daily and quite conservative in its analysis (which is good). Do you have good more frequent sources that you trust?
