What consultation has been done with traditional owners and aboriginal groups regarding their native title rights and interests?
The Government is committed to genuine ongoing consultation and negotiation with Aboriginal communities, including native title claimants, regarding their interests in Box-Ironbark forests and woodlands areas. Prior to the implementation of recommendations for parks and reserves, and changes in public land management, the Government will ensure that the provisions of the Native Title Act 1993 (Cwth) are implemented within the framework of Government’s Native Title policy. The Government will also work with Victorian Aboriginal communities to identify and establish effective processes for continued consultation regarding their native title rights and interests.
