Native Title in the News – November & December 2000
We are busily completing the final production of the proceedings from last year’s Native Title Representative Bodies Legal Conference, held in Melbourne in April 2000. Bryan Keon-Cohen QC has been working furiously to edit the papers, a selection of which will be published in the book with a great deal of additional material to be included on an accompanying CD. The result will be an exciting and very important publication. So, look out for Native Title in the New Millennium. Hot on the heels of the proceedings we are working on the next NTRB Legal Conference which will be a celebration of the 20 year Anniversary of the Townsville conference that initiated the Mabo litigation. The conference will be held in Townsville on the 28-30 August 2001. We will keep you posted on developments with the organisation of the event. NATIVE TITLE IN THE NEWS – NOVEMBER & DECEMBER 2000 New South Wales Land holders and other interest holders affected by the Muthi Muthi native title application over 23,829 square kilometres in south western New South Wales have been invited by the National Native Title Tribunal to register for mediation talks. The application covers land in Balranald Shire bounded by Euston, the Murray and Edward Rivers to Moolpa, Maude, Booligal, Willandra Creek and Mungo National Park and excludes private freehold land. (NNTT Media Release, 13 Dec) The National Native Title Tribunal has advertised five native title applications in western New South Wales inviting interest holders to register as parties to the mediation proceedings. The applications in the Balranald, Bourke, Broken Hill, Central Darling, Cobar, Wentworth and Unincorporated Area do not cover any private freehold land.

Introduction Language, land and song are closely entwined for most pre-industrial societies, whether the fishing and farming economies of Homeric Greece, or the raiding, mercenary and farming economies of the Norse, or the hunter- gatherer economies of Australia. Documenting a language is now seen as incomplete unless documenting place, story and song forms part of it. This book presents language documentation in its broadest sense in the Australian context, also giving a view of the documentation of Australian Aboriginal languages over time.1 In doing so, we celebrate the achievements of a pioneer in this field, Luise Hercus, who has documented languages, land, song and story in Australia over more than fifty years.

Noun Phrase Constituency in Australian Languages: a Typological Study
Linguistic Typology 2016; 20(1): 25–80 Dana Louagie and Jean-Christophe Verstraete Noun phrase constituency in Australian languages: A typological study DOI 10.1515/lingty-2016-0002 Received July 14, 2015; revised December 17, 2015 Abstract: This article examines whether Australian languages generally lack clear noun phrase structures, as has sometimes been argued in the literature. We break up the notion of NP constituency into a set of concrete typological parameters, and analyse these across a sample of 100 languages, representing a significant portion of diversity on the Australian continent. We show that there is little evidence to support general ideas about the absence of NP structures, and we argue that it makes more sense to typologize languages on the basis of where and how they allow “classic” NP construal, and how this fits into the broader range of construals in the nominal domain. Keywords: Australian languages, constituency, discontinuous constituents, non- configurationality, noun phrase, phrase-marking, phrasehood, syntax, word- marking, word order 1 Introduction It has often been argued that Australian languages show unusual syntactic flexibility in the nominal domain, and may even lack clear noun phrase struc- tures altogether – e. g., in Blake (1983), Heath (1986), Harvey (2001: 112), Evans (2003a: 227–233), Campbell (2006: 57); see also McGregor (1997: 84), Cutfield (2011: 46–50), Nordlinger (2014: 237–241) for overviews and more general dis- cussion of claims to this effect. This idea is based mainly on features

Legislative Assembly
23031 LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY Wednesday 19 May 2010 __________ The Speaker (The Hon. George Richard Torbay) took the chair at 10.00 a.m. The Speaker read the Prayer and acknowledgement of country. BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE Notices of Motions General Business Notices of Motions (General Notices) given. PRIVATE MEMBERS' STATEMENTS __________ ILLEGAL BOARDING HOUSES Mr VICTOR DOMINELLO (Ryde) [10.03 a.m.]: About 11 weeks ago, on 25 February 2010, I addressed this Chamber about the problems associated with the proliferation of illegal boarding houses in Ryde. At that time a residents' action group today known as Marsfield Against Residential Suffocation [MARS] was in its infancy. Today MARS is a well-organised and passionate group led by local Marsfield resident Alan Patrick. I would like to make special mention of Peter Groenestyn, Gloria Dartnell, Neil Yakalis, Sylvain Flore, and Rodney and Helen Simmons, who are just some of the hardworking members of the MARS team. The MARS action group is calling on all governments to work together to provide increased student housing capacity in the short term and to plan innovatively for the long-term housing needs of the increasing number of international students at Macquarie University and international workers employed by businesses within the Macquarie Park business precinct. In addition, the group wants to see unscrupulous boarding house operators punished with significant financial penalties and enforcement orders brought against them. Shortly I will be presented with a petition from the MARS action group spokesman Alan Patrick on the steps of the Parliament. The petition contains, I am led to believe, over 1,000 signatures from concerned residents calling on Premier Kristina Keneally and her State Labor Government to act immediately to get rid of the boarding house provisions of the Affordable Rental Housing State Environmental Planning Policy, and to take decisive action to give local councils the power they need to inspect illegal boarding houses and make enforcement orders against their proprietors.

Chapter 5. "Art An' Culture: the Two Main Things, Right?"
Chapter 5. "Art an' Culture: the Two Main Things, Right?" Art and culture: the two main things right? Because you get any visitor what come along...they interested in Aboriginal culture, they interested in art, right? ~ Badger Bates, Wilcannian Aboriginal artist. This chapter explicates some of the ways in which Aboriginality and Aboriginal identity are expressed and made manifest through the lenses of'art' and 'culture', as these categories are drawn upon and defined by some Aboriginal people of Wilcannia. I start from the premise that artists in Wilcannia currently produce what they call art; they 'have' art. One of my reasons for taking art as a point of exploration is the way in which 'Aboriginal people' (as a discursive category) have become increasingly indexed by the products of art (Merlan 2001 & 1994:681). That is, the works themselves have come to stand for - to index - the presence of Aboriginal culture. This assumption is explored in relation to the making of art in Wilcannia, together with the broader white perceptions of Wilcannia's lack of culture. What 'art' and 'culture' mean and are made to mean are vehicles for understanding social processes and interactions, their meanings and values more broadly. Art works and artists are of particular interest in light of the dynamics of Wilcannia for the way forms of difference become problematic. Over the past four decades and increasingly over the last two, the category of 'Aboriginal art' has become a vehicle through which 'Aboriginal culture' (writ large) has gained certain kinds of viability and value. Aboriginal art has become a "socio-political project" of many agencies of the Australian state and has figured as a means of offering a positive "revaluation of indigeneity" (Merlan 2001:202) for both Aboriginal people and in the eyes of the wider Australian public.
