DEBATES – Wednesday 9 May 2018 3890 It Seems
DEBATES – Wednesday 9 May 2018 It seems to be an extraordinary coincidence that the oil and gas reserves are between the two countries. I think that tells us we need to work things out together, not compete for it. How can we mutually benefit from this great resource? Do not forget that if we work this out well between East Timor and northern Australia— those reserves extend further into Indonesia. Indonesia is in need of energy just as we are. The three of us could work it out. There are opportunities for the Northern Territory to position itself well to provide support across the line so we can all benefit from this and open up. If we do that and cooperate, we could all end up in a far better position. There is much to be gained if we work together on this. I am happy to report to members who have an interest in this. I will have further meetings with government tomorrow to see how we progress this. I would like to see more detail about how the Arafura Games could be used to add some greater definition to this particular project, because this project of building a stronger commercial case for better aviation services in the region will be supported if we have a strong focus on the trilateral. Canberra will note it if we are proactive in this. Jakarta will recognise it as well. We need Jakarta and we need Canberra, and the way to do that is to show that we are finding creative ways to work together whether it is through education, the Chamber of Commerce in Eastern Indonesia, or seeking advice of the Australia Indonesia Business Council.

Cultural Heritage
Alcan Gove Alumina Refinery Expansion Project Section 20 Draft Environmental Impact Statement Cultural Heritage 20 Cultural Heritage 20.0 Cultural Heritage 20.1 Introduction This section provides an overview of the cultural heritage in the Gove region and outlines Alcan’s approach to cultural heritage issues. The Gove Peninsula is located in Arnhem Land in the north-east of the Northern Territory. Arnhem Land is a large area of Aboriginal-owned land and is one of Australia’s most significant areas of traditional Aboriginal culture. East Arnhem Land covers an area of 96,000 km2 and accommodates a population of approximately 14,000 people, with approximately 3,800 non-Aboriginal people living in Nhulunbuy. The balance live in the surrounding Aboriginal communities and homelands. The Aboriginal people of North East Arnhem call themselves Yolngu and today blend western lifestyle with their traditional culture. The cultural heritage of the north-east Arnhem region has many aspects including land, societal structures, traditional beliefs, values and aspirations, art and cross-cultural relationships with non-Aboriginal people. The cornerstones of Alcan Gove’s approach to cultural heritage are: • Respect for the Yolngu people as Traditional Owners and longstanding occupants of the north-east Arnhem region; • Recognition of the importance of traditional culture in Yolngu society; • Recognition of the fundamental importance of land in Yolngu culture and its relationship with other aspects of Yolngu culture; • A commitment to consultation and transparency in sharing information about the operations of Alcan Gove including the proposed expansion; • A commitment to working with Yolngu people and organisations to support their initiatives to protect and strengthen Yolngu culture; • Recognition of sacred sites and other areas with cultural heritage significance; and • A continuing commitment to improving cross cultural understanding between Yolngu and non-Aboriginal communities.

Nhulunbuy/Gove Peninsula & Nearby Homelands
What will happen if COVID-19 comes to Gove Peninsula and nearby homelands? Summary of the Nhulunbuy District Local Pandemic Plan Currently there is no COVID-19 in East Arnhem Land. But someone might bring the coronavirus into the NT and into East Arnhem Land. We need to be ready to protect ourselves and control the virus if that happens. The Northern Territory Government, the Land Councils and Aboriginal Medical Services Associated of the NT (AMSANT), working with local organisations like Miwatj Health, Laynhapuy Health, Rirratjiŋu, Gumatj and East Arnhem Regional Council, have made plans about what to do if coronavirus comes to the region. For the Miwatj region, this plan is called the Nhulunbuy District Local Pandemic Plan. The people who worked on the Nhulunbuy district plan are sharing this summary of the plan so that everyone is informed and prepared. The plans might change if the people steering the plan make new decisions about the pathways to keep people safe. The last time new information was added to this summary was in July 2021. Goals of this plan Keep COVID-19 out of East Arnhem Land. Talking and listening to Balanda and Yolŋu about what is happening, so everyone knows what to do if someone brings coronavirus to East Arnhem. Plan for testing people who might have the virus, and looking after them until the test results are known. Plan for taking the people who have the virus to hospital in Nhulunbuy or Darwin Plan for quickly finding people who might have come into contact with the person who has the virus, looking after them and keeping them away from other people.
