  • Accessing Country Last Updated: May 2014
    Aboriginal Communities Accessing Country Last updated: May 2014 These Fact Sheets are a guide only and are no substitute for legal advice. To request free initial legal advice on an environmental or planning law issue, please visit our website1 or call our Environmental Law Advice Line. Your request will be allocated to one of our solicitors who will call you back, usually within a few days of your call. Sydney: 02 9262 6989 Northern Rivers: 1800 626 239 Rest of NSW: 1800 626 239 EDO NSW has published a book on environmental Law for Aboriginal communities in NSW. For a more comprehensive guide, read Caring for Country: A guide to environmental law for Aboriginal communities in NSW. Overview Aboriginal people need to be able to access lands and waters to continue their traditions. These traditional practices include fishing, hunting, gathering food, camping, gathering firewood, visiting places with cultural significance, caring for country, caring for burial and other sites, and practising culture. Aboriginal people may always attempt to negotiate access, but the landowner may not always agree. The legal rights of Aboriginal people to access land and water depend on the legal status of the land or waterway. Further information about land dealings may be obtained from the EDO’s series of Fact Sheets and from the NSW Aboriginal Land Council. Access to particular types of land General A Local Aboriginal Land Council (LALC) may negotiate an agreement with any land owner or occupier or person in control of land to permit an Aboriginal group or 1 http://www.edonsw.org.au/legal_advice 2 individual ‘to have access to the land for the purpose of hunting, fishing or gathering on the land’.2 If an agreement cannot be reached, the LALC may request that the Land and Environment Court issue a permit to access the land, or a right of way across the land, for the purpose of hunting, or fishing, or gathering traditional foods for domestic purposes.3 The Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) allows for access agreements to be negotiated.
