Happy Christmas from Katherine Research Station
Katherine Research Station PO Box 1346, Katherine NT 0851 Phone: (08) 8973 9739 Fax: (08) 8973 9777 [email protected] ISSN 0394-9823 www.nt.gov.au/drdpifr EDITION 293 D e c / J a n 2 0 0 8 / 0 9 Happy Christmas from Katherine Research Station Neil MacDonald, Regional Director Katherine As our last edition for 2008 reaches you, I hope you are looking forward to a good Christmas break and I hope plenty of the excellent rain has fallen on you. I hope too that you can reflect back on a worthwhile year and are looking forward to 2009 with optimism. For our part we have a very full year and with the recent changes in our department, next year will not be dull. Our Chief Executive John Carroll has left and Richard Galton is our acting departing head in the interim. Once a permanent appointment has been made, the Chief Executive will be based in Alice Springs, as will the head of Primary Industries, Rod Gobbey. With our new department, we have taken over responsibility for regional development. That group will be headed by Fran Kilgariff, also based in Alice Springs. Phil Anning will move from Alice Springs, where he has been Regional Director for many years, and lead the Regional Development division in Katherine. The Primary Industry Group has also been reorganised, bringing the laboratories and research farms directly under the operational divisions. The main changes for the Katherine region are that the Crops, Forestry & Horticulture Division will be renamed ‘Plant Industries’ and enlarged by including the plant pathologists and entomologists who support the crops and horticulture industries. -

Application for the Establishment of the Katherine Regional Land Council
Application for the Establishment of the Katherine Regional land Council Submission by the Northern Land Council to the Commission of Inquiry conducted by the Aboriginal Land Commissioner Howard Olney AM QC September 2011 APPLICATION TO ESTABLISH KATHERINE REGIONAL LAND COUNCIL COMMISSION OF INQUIRY CONDUCTED BY THE ABORIGINAL LAND COMMISSIONER HOWARD OLNEY AM QC NORTHERN LAND COUNCIL SUBMISSION 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This submission responds to an application made by 15 persons on 25 January 20 II under s 21 A of the Aboriginal Land Rights (Northern Territory) Act 1976 for the establishment of a new Land Council within the present region of the Northern Land Council (NLC). Despite concerning almost 80% of the NLC's region, the applicants propose that the new entity have only 10 staff. The applicants submit that additional staff are not needed, because the new entity will delegate functions to traditional owner corporations (in most cases, yet to be established) with cost recovery being used to engage consultants and assistance for the performance of statutory functions. It is submitted that the application should be refused pursuant to s 21B(1)(b) because the Minister could not be satisfied that the qualifying area is an "appropriate" area under s 21B(2)(a), given that: (i) The application does not fulfil the statutory purpose of s 21A, which is to enable separate Land Councils for regional cultural groupings, but only where capacity and good governance is demonstrated and where it is otherwise appropriate. (ii) The boundary of the qualifying area bisects the Arnhem Land Aboriginal Land Trust, and is thus inconsistent with the statutory scheme which does not contemplate that two Land Councils will be responsible for administering and directing a single Land Trust. -

A new experience is waiting for you around every corner. From Darwin’s kaleidoscope sunsets and sparkling ocean, to the ancient Aboriginal rock art of Kakadu National Park and the stunning sheer escarpment of Nitmiluk (Katherine) Gorge, to the vibrant Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park red heart of the Territory, where iconic Uluru (Ayers Rock) and the charming outback town of Alice Springs are waiting to meet you.
