For 235 years, nothing has worked.  Continue that with a “NO” vote or at least try another way with a “YES” vote.  I’m voting “YES”.  At least the Constitution would then formally admit that there were people already here. 
The exact make-up of the Voice, is open to Parliament to change its composition and how it operates.  That is the “detail”.  The referendum would allow that Voice to exist.
