Bunuba Inc. a Copy of the FTTP Is Attachment 1 to This Report ABORIGINAL AFFAIRS PLANNING AUTHORITY ACT 1972 RESERVES 9656 AND 33542, FITZROY CROSSING REPORT OF THE ABORIGINAL AFFAIRS PLANNING AUTHORITY ISSUE Reserve 9656 is located in the township of Fitzroy Crossing and within that reserve is a separate area being Reserve 33542. Both are the subject of a proclamation under Part III of the Aboriginal Affairs Planning Authority Act 1972 ("AAPA Act") and are under the control and management of the Aboriginal Lands Trust ("ALT"). The Fitzroy Futures Town Plan ("FFTP") was developed by the then Department of Planning and Infrastructure in partnership with the Shire of DerbyWest Kimberley and Bunuba Inc. A copy of the FTTP is Attachment 1 to this Report. Considerable consultation was undertaken with a number of stakeholders and the wider community in development of the FTTP. The FFTP outlines strategies for future land use planning in Fitzroy Crossing aimed at achieving better social, cultural and economic outcomes for local Aboriginal communities. The FTTP provides strategies for supply of viable land for residential, commercial and industrial uses and integration of the township with town- based Aboriginal communities. Land tenure changes to Reserves 9656 and 33542 are pivotal to implementation of the FFTP. In March 2010 the ALT recommended to the Aboriginal Affairs Planning Authority ("AAPA") that Reserves 9656 and 33542 be de-proclaimed under section 25(1) (c) AAPA Act. The AAPA on recommendation of the ALT now seeks a declaration under that section 25(1) (c) AAPA Act that Reserves 9656 and 33542 cease to be reserved for persons of Aboriginal descent. THE RESERVES Reserve 9656 comprises approximately 992 hectares. Reserve 33542 is a 3.88 hectare portion within Reserve 9656. On 17 March 1905 Reserve 9656 was set aside as public lands for the purpose of a town site under the Land Act 1898. In 1951 the reservation of the land as town site changed to reservation for natives under the Native Administration Act 1905-47. On 6 June 1973 Reserve 9656 was proclaimed under section 25 of the AAPA Act to be reserved for persons of Aboriginal descent. Pursuant to section 24 of the AAPA Act, the Governor by proclamation declared Reserve 9656 under the control and management of the ALT. Reserve 33542 is located within Reserve 9656 having been reserved for the purpose of the (former) Fitzroy Crossing School.It was created when a 3.88 hectare portion of Reserve 9656 was purportedly excised in 1975.Investigations have shown that the creation of Reserve 33542 never proceeded through the required de-proclamation process and is still subject to Part III AAPA Act. The Junjuwa Aboriginal Community is located on a small portion of Reserve 9656. Junjuwa Community Incorporated (JCI) has bylaws proclaimed under the Aboriginal Communities Act 1979 (WA). The bylaws are no longer enforced. The de-proclamation will have no impact upon the bylaws in any event.JCI and other Bunuba constituent bodies restructured in 1999 and a new corporate body was set up in 1999 - Bunuba Inc. The membership of Bunuba Inc includes the members of JCI. Bunuba Inc was a party to the FTTP. NATIVE TITLE CLAIMS Currently there is no native title claim over Reserves 9656 and 33542 however the Bunuba native title claim covers land in the immediate vicinity. The State Government is currently negotiating an Indigenous Land Use Agreement (ILUA) with the Bunuba native title claimants. DE-PROCLAMATION OF THE RESERVES The de-proclamation of Reserves 9656 and 33542 is required to enable the land planning uses and tenure changes envisaged under the FTTP to occur.Bunuba Inc. and the Bunuba native title claimants support the de-proclamation and the implementation of the FTTP. To de-proclaim Reserves 9656 and 33542, the Governor must make a declaration under section 25(1) (c) of the AAPA Act that the land shall cease to be reserved for persons of Aboriginal descent under that Act. Once this has occurred the proclamation by which the land came under Part III will fall away. Prior to being the subject of a proclamation under Part III AAPA Act, the land was first reserved under the relevant Land Acts. By virtue of the provisions of the Land Administration Act 1997("LAA") that prior vesting continues in as a Management Order under s 46(3) of that Act. The Management Order continues post de-proclamation. Accordingly, when the Part III protection is removed, the Management Order remains and the Reserves revert to ALT reserves for the Use and Benefit of Aboriginal Inhabitants under the LAA. Those land tenure changes required to implement the FTTP can then be made in accordance with the applicable processes under the LAA. 2 RECOMMENDATION The AAPA asks the Minister to recommend to the Governor under section 25(2) of the AAPA Act that Reserves 9656 and shall cease to be reserved for persons of Aboriginal descent in accordance with section 25(1)(c) of that Act. 3 ABORIGINAL AFFAIRS PLANNING AUTHORITY ACT 1972 SECTION 25 PROPOSED RECOMMENDATION MINISTER FOR INDIGENOUS AFFAIRS The Minister respectfully advises His Excellency the Governor: 1.Under section 25(1)(c) of the Aboriginal Affairs Planning Authority Act 1972 to make the following proclamation; "I, the Governor, acting under section 25(1)(c) of the Aboriginal Affairs Planning Authority Act 1972 on the recommendation of the Minister for Indigenous Affairs and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council, declare that the land described in the Schedule shall cease to be reserved for persons of Aboriginal descent". and 2.To approve of the publication of that proclamation in the Government Gazette.

    Biology and cultural significance of the freshwater sawfish (Pristis microdon) in the Fitzroy River Kimberley, Western Australia Report to 2004 A collaboration between Kimberley Language Resource Centre Cover Artwork: Competition winner, freshwater sawfish painting by Joy Nuggett (Mangkaja Arts, Fitzroy Crossing, Western Australia) Report by Dean Thorburn, David Morgan and Howard Gill from the Freshwater Fish Group at the Centre for Fish & Fisheries Research Mel Johnson, Hugh Wallace-Smith, Tom Vigilante, Ari Gorring, Ishmal Croft and Jean Fenton Land + Sea Unit Numerous language experts and people of the west Kimberley in conjunction with the Kimberley Language Resource Centre Our sincere gratitude is extended to the Threatened Species Network and World Wide Fund For Nature for providing the funds for this project. Fishcare WA and Environment Australia also made a substantial financial contribution to the project . 2 Project Summary During a collaborative study involving researchers and members from Murdoch University, the Kimberley Land Council, the Kimberley Language Resource Centre and numerous communities of the west Kimberley, a total of 79 endangered freshwater sawfish Pristis microdon were captured (and released) from King Sound and the Fitzroy, May and Robinson rivers between 2002 and 2004. Forty of these individuals were tagged. This culturally significant species, is not only an important food source, but is included in a number of stories and beliefs of the peoples of the Fitzroy River, where it is referred to as ‘galwanyi’ in Bunuba and Gooniyandi, ‘wirridanyniny’ or ‘pial pial’ in Nyikina, and ‘wirrdani’ in Walmajarri (see Chapter 2). In relation to the biology and ecology of the species (Chapter 1), of the 73 individuals sexed, 43 were female, ranging in length from 832 to 2770 mm TL, and 30 were male, ranging in length from 815 to 2350 mm TL.

  • A Grammatical Sketch of Ngarla: a Language of Western Australia Torbjörn Westerlund
    UPPSALA UNIVERSITY master thesis The department for linguistics and philology spring term 2007 A grammatical sketch of Ngarla: A language of Western Australia Torbjörn Westerlund Supervisor: Anju Saxena Abstract In this thesis the basic grammatical structure of normal speech style of the Western Australian language Ngarla is described using example sentences taken from the Ngarla – English Dictionary (by Geytenbeek; unpublished). No previous description of the language exists, and since there are only five people who still speak it, it is of utmost importance that it is investigated and described. The analysis in this thesis has been made by Torbjörn Westerlund, and the focus lies on the morphology of the nominal word class. The preliminary results show that the language shares many grammatical traits with other Australian languages, e.g. the ergative/absolutive case marking pattern. The language also appears to have an extensive verbal inflectional system, and many verbalisers. 2 Abbreviations 0 zero marked morpheme 1 first person 1DU first person dual 1PL first person plural 1SG first person singular 2 second person 2DU second person dual 2PL second person plural 2SG second person singular 3 third person 3DU third person dual 3PL third person plural 3SG third person singular A the transitive subject ABL ablative ACC accusative ALL/ALL2 allative ASP aspect marker BUFF buffer morpheme C consonant CAUS causative COM comitative DAT dative DEM demonstrative DU dual EMPH emphatic marker ERG ergative EXCL exclusive, excluding addressee FACT factitive FUT future tense HORT hortative ImmPAST immediate past IMP imperative INCHO inchoative INCL inclusive, including addressee INSTR instrumental LOC locative NEG negation NMLISER nominaliser NOM nominative N.SUFF nominal class suffix OBSCRD obscured perception P the transitive object p.c.

To work in partnership with the diverse Kimberley language communities To ensure Kimberley languages are passed on to children. The KLRC is the only organisation in Australia focussing solely on Kimberley Aboriginal languages. The Kimberley was, and still is, the one of the most linguistically diverse areas in Australia with at least 421 language groups plus additional dialects identified. The KLRC Directors advocate for the 30 or so languages still spoken. The organisation was established in 1984 by Aboriginal people concerned about the effects of colonisation and the continuing impact of Western society on their spoken languages and cultural knowledge. It is beginning its 26th year of operations with a wealth of experience and resources underpinning its service delivery. The organisation is governed by a Board of 12 Directors accountable to a membership from across the region. The office is based in Halls Creek in the East Kimberley. The KLRC provides a forum for developing language policy to strategically revive and maintain (in other words, continue) the Kimberley Aboriginal languages.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2010-2011 The Kimberley Land Council is the Native Title Representative Body for the Traditional Owners of the Kimberley region. We represent 29 native title claim groups across the Kimberley. Our organisation was established by Aboriginal people for Ab- original people and was formed during the political upheaval of the great Noonkanbah battle and the struggle for land rights. Our representative area covers 412,451 square kilometres and the KLC has worked hard to deliver native title to our members. The Kimberley is now 65 per cent determined native title land. We stand by our vision to Look after country, Get back country and Get control of our future. As a result, our focus as a grass-roots community organisation, is to work with ourTraditional Owners in the areas of native title, agreement making and land and sea management. Our organisation has a long and proud history and we look to continue to achieve positive outcomes for Kimberley Tradition- al Owners into the future.

  • Teacher Notes Jandamarra and the Bunuba Resistance SYNOPSIS
    Teacher Notes Jandamarra and the Bunuba Resistance Howard Pedersen and Banjo Worrunmurra SYNOPSIS Jandamarra and the Bunuba Resistance is the true story of the powerful resistance put forth by Aboriginal freedom fighter, Jandamarra, in the closing years of the nineteenth century. To protect the Bunuba people of the Kimberley region, Jandamarra courageously and cleverly manoeuvred an opposition to the final stages of white invasion in Australia. Historian Howard Pedersen has interwoven written records including many primary source documents from the era with the oral history of the Bunuba people as told by Banjo Woorunmurra. The end result is an insightful and detailed account of the remarkable struggle against the many injustices suffered by the Indigenous peoples of Western Australia at the hands of white colonists, government officials and the police force. Most outstanding about Jandamarra and the Bunuba Resistance is the heroic and spiritual leadership of Jandamarra, a man whom his own countrymen greatly respected and regarded as a warrior with the gifts of magic and immortality. This he earned through his actions and pure courage. Indeed, Jandamarra is both legend and hero, a pivotal character in Australia’s past, present and future. THEMES Heroes and Legends • Jandamarra is a true hero, putting himself in grave danger to resist the colonisation of Bunuba country • The Jandamarra legend is one that is integral to the history and culture of Australia Relationships and Community • As a youngster, Jandamarra was ostracised from the

  • Part 6 of Australian Frontier Wars Western Australia
    NUNAWADING MILITARY HISTORY GROUP MINI NEWSLETTER No. 30 Part 6 of Australian Frontier Wars Western Australia The first British settlement in Western Australia was established by the British Army, 57th of Foot, (West Middle- sex Regiment) at Albany in 1826. Relations between the garrison and the local Minang people were generally good. Open conflict between Noongar and European settlers broke out in Western Australia in the 1830s as the Swan River Colony expanded from Perth. The Pinjarra Massacre, the best known single event, occurred on 28 October 1833. The Pinjarra massacre, also known as the Battle of Pinjarra, is an attack that occurred in 1834 at Pinjarra, Western Australia on an uncertain number of Binjareb Noongar people by a detachment of 25 soldiers of the 21st of Foot, (North British Fusiliers), police and settlers led by Governor James Stirling. Stirling estimated the Bin- jareb present numbered "about 60 or 70" and John Roe, who also par- ticipated, at about 70–80, which roughly agree with an estimate of 70 by an unidentified eyewitness. On the attacking side, Captain Theophilus Tighe Ellis was killed and Corporal Patrick Heffron was injured. On the defending side an uncer- tain number of Binjareb men, women and children were killed. While Stirling quantified the number of Binjareb killed as probably 15 males, Roe estimated the number killed as 15–20, and an unidentified eyewitness as 25–30 including 1 woman and several children in addi- tion to being "very probable that more men were killed in the river and floated down with the stream". The number of Binjareb injured is un- known, as is the number of deaths resulting from injuries sustained Pinjarra Massacre Site memorial during the attack.
