In Australia, traditional Indigenous rights in land are necessarily recognised and managed at the group level, even in contexts where some rights can be held individually. At the same time, the Australian legal system generally demands hard-edged decisions, with legal consequences that are concrete, final and binding rather than fluid, contextual and renegotiable. In this setting, native title law must regulate complex and contested interactions between the Australian legal system and sometimes large and disparate groups of Indigenous people. In doing so, the law faces a twin challenge: how to remain neutral in the face of competing claims about legitimate Indigenous authority, while ensuring that internal disagreements do not make collective agency impossible. The Australian legal system addresses this challenge by imposing a centralised representative structure on Indigenous group decision-making. During the native title claims process and compensation claims, this is done by requiring groups to appoint one or more individuals to act as the ‘applicant’ in the Federal Court. After native title is formally recognised, a new representative structure is mandated – the ‘registered native title body corporate’. In both cases, the law sets out rules that both govern the process by which the group authorises the representative and define the scope of the representative’s power to make decisions on behalf of the group without prior consultation. Together, these rules can broadly be referred to as the ‘law on authorisation’. In the more than 20 years since the first native title claim, a vast and complex body of law and practice has developed, covering everything from

  • A Native Title Information Talk Delivered at Fernvale Futures on 22 February 2014. Tim Wishart Slide 1 I Acknowledge and Offer M
    A Native Title Information Talk Delivered at Fernvale Futures on 22 February 2014. Tim Wishart Slide 1 I acknowledge and offer my respect to the country on which we meet and to the Traditional Owners of this country and to their Old People and Elders. The organisation for which I work, Queensland South Native Title Services is a native title service provider recognised and funded by the Federal Government under the Native Title Act (1993). Slide 2 The area for which QSNTS has statutory recognition under the Native Title Act covers an area spanning Queensland, along the New South Wales border from the Coral Sea to the South Australian border, north to about 250 kilometres north of Mt Isa and running diagonally south eastwards to the coast, marginally south of Sarina. Slide 3 I ought to say that views and opinions expressed are mine and are not necessarily reflective of corporate views or policy of QSNTS. In this conversation I will refer to the Native Title Act as ‘the Act’. But in the consciousness of Queensland Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander society, the expression “the Act” is often a reference to The Aboriginal Protection and Restrictions of the Sale of Opium Act 1897. That legislation was an Act of the Queensland Parliament. As a result of dispersal, malnutrition, use of opium and diseases, all a consequence of European incursion into traditional lands coupled with the attempted genocide that came with that incursion, it was widely believed in Queensland that Aborigines were members of a 'dying race'. In 1894 pressure from some quarters of the community saw the Queensland Government commission Archibald Meston to look at what had conveniently, for the colonising power, become the plight of Aboriginal people.
