Larissa: I think a lot of Australians don't know that history because I know I definitely didn't until I came up into the Kimberley and then you're exposed to it. Um, and - 'cause living in a city like you - you do - you - you end up in your little bubble and your - your life and this is how things are and - and you don't step outside of that box until you either travel and then you get a little taste of it or you - you go somewhere and experience it. Cameo: Today we travel to one of Australia’s most iconic and remote regions. Located in the North-West corner of Australia, the Kimberley is famous for its spectacular scenery. Rocky outcrops, cascading waterfalls and rare plants and animals draw many visitors each year. These dramatic landscapes have also been the site of brutal and traumatic histories for Aboriginal people at the hands of White settlers. In 2004 Aboriginal people had their underlying rights to land recognized over a large swathe of the Kimberley. This recognition came under Australia’s Native Title Act, which is often touted as delivering direct benefit to Indigenous people.

Hon Robin Chapple to the Minister for Environment representing the Minister for Lands In relation to the Govemment's support for carbon sequestration proj ects on Westem Australia's pastoral leases, I ask: (a) which carbon sequestration project methods approved under the Federal Government's Emissions Reduction Fund fall within the definition of 'pastoral purposes' as outlined under Westem Australia's Land Administration Act 1997; (b) when does the Govemment expect it will be in a position to start providing eligible interest holder consent for carbon sequestration projects on pastoral leases; (c) is the Govemment considering providing consent for all carbon sequestration projects that have been provisionally registered with the Emissions Reduction Fund, or only those projects that have been successful in securing contracts to supply carbon credits to tile Federal Govemment; (d) is the Govemment aware that by 1 July 2019, over 20 per cent of Westem Australian pastoral leases will have te=s that are less than 25 years, and that consequently under current legislation, pastoralists and other leaseholders will be unable to register a carbon sequestration proj ect because they require tenure of at least 25 years duration; (e) what are the names of the pastoral leases and the regions in which they are situated that, at 1 July 2019, will have 25 years or less of their terms left to run; (f) of the leases listed in (e), how many are Aboriginal-owned; (g) will the Govemment provide for leaseholders to undertake carbon sequestration proj ects of a duration of 100 years which is the intemationally accepted and compliant standard; and (h) if yes to (g), what tenure will provide for such projects? Answer (a) To date, the State of West em Australia has only formally considered the approved Human-Induced Regeneration of a Pel111anent Even-Aged Native Forest method, in te=s of consistency with 'pastoral purposes' as defmed within Part 7 of the Land Administration Act 1997.

  • Ockham's Razor
    The Journal of the European Association for Studies of Australia, Vol.4 No.1, 2013. Reading Coolibah’s Story: As told by Coolibah to John Boulton John Boulton Copyright © John Boulton 2013. This text may be archived and redistributed both in electronic form and in hard copy, provided that the author and journal are properly cited and no fee is charged. Abstract: This paper describes selected key events in the life of Coolibah, a retired Gurindji stockman, through his non-Aboriginal friend John Boulton. Coolibah made John “a close friend of the same age”, referred to specifically as tjimerra in Gooniyandi language (the language that he has become most familiar with since being removed from his family as a small child). This classifactory kin relationship makes it possible for John Boulton to tell Coolibah’s story. This article is situated within the tradition of oral histories of the lives of Aboriginal people at the colonial frontier. It is also within a tradition of friendships between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal, including European, people, often anthropologists and other professionals with a deep commitment to that world. In this article, Boulton uses the events of Coolibah’s life and that of his family and kin as a departure point to discuss the impact of history on the health of the people. Coolibah’s life is viewed through the lens of structural violence whereby the causal factors for the gap in health outcomes have been laid down. This article provides the theoretical framework to understand the extent of psychic, emotional and physical harm perpetrated on generations of Aboriginal people from the violent collision of the two worlds on the Australian frontier.
