A Appendix A: Committee visits to remote Aboriginal and Torres Strait communities As part of the Committee’s inquiry into remote Indigenous community stores the Committee visited seventeen communities, all of which had a distinctive culture, history and identity. The Committee began its community visits on 30 March 2009 travelling to the Torres Strait and the Cape York Peninsula in Queensland over four days. In late April the Committee visited communities in Central Australia over a three day period. Final consultations were held in Broome, Darwin and various remote regions in the Northern Territory including North West Arnhem Land. These visits took place in July over a five day period. At each location the Committee held a public meeting followed by an open forum. These meetings demonstrated to the Committee the importance of the store in remote community life. The Committee appreciated the generous hospitality and evidence provided to the Committee by traditional owners and elders, clans and families in all the remote Aboriginal and Torres Strait communities visited during the inquiry. The Committee would also like to thank everyone who assisted with the administrative organisation of the Committee’s community visits including ICC managers, Torres Strait Councils, Government Business Managers and many others within the communities. A brief synopsis of each community visit is set out below.1 1 Where population figures are given, these are taken from a range of sources including 2006 Census data and Grants Commission figures. 158 EVERYBODY’S BUSINESS Torres Strait Islands The Torres Strait Islands (TSI), traditionally called Zenadth Kes, comprise 274 small islands in an area of 48 000 square kilometres (kms), from the tip of Cape York north to Papua New Guinea and Indonesia. -

Review of Indigenous Employment and Engagement in the Northern Pastoral Industry 2007 Abstract The Northern Pastoral Industry (NPI) is currently experiencing difficulty attracting and retaining skilled workers, to the extent that the production capacity and profitability of businesses are affected. These staff recruitment and retention difficulties are occurring despite the fact that the NPI operates in a region where there are large Aboriginal populations experiencing very high unemployment rates and where there is a strong history and association with the pastoral industry. There are reputably reported low participation rates of Aboriginal people in the NPI where the Aboriginal population is high and strong anecdotal evidence supporting this, but there is in fact no specific employment data or correlation of data to help the industry establish a clear strategic approach to improving Aboriginal participation.
