* THE WIRE AUDIO: REMOTE COMMUNITIES' LAND IN NT COULD BE OPEN TO PRIVATIZATION

- Audio Interview

The Wire: Remote communities' land in NT could be open to privatization
Produced by Lidia Nikonova
http://www.thewire.org.au/storyDetail.aspx?ID=10146
18 Mar 13: "A new policy proposal in the Northern Territory could see Remote communities’ lands further opened up to private ownership. Many of remote communities have a communal model of ownership, but the new Policy Homeland Extra aims to smooth the way for land to be privately owned. ... While some believe the policy will improve the living conditions, it could also change the kin-based structure of the communities. And private ownership may also radically change the communal lifestyle, some experts argue.

- Analysis / Opinion

On Line Opinion: The current state of the Northern Territory intervention
http://www.onlineopinion.com.au/view.asp?article=13182&page=0
31 Jan 12: "In Part Two, "Land Reform", it states that the "measures are aimed at facilitating the granting of rights and interests, and promoting economic development, in those camps and areas" (ComLaw 2011). However in the detail it states that the regulations may modify any law of the Northern Territory relating to: the use of land; or dealings in land; or planning; or infrastructure; or any matter prescribed by the regulations to the extent that the law applies to a town camp and the same conditions apply to community living areas. This gives the Federal Government more power over the Northern Territory government; it doesn't empower Aboriginal people in the slightest." By Amanda Midlam

Respect and Listen: http://www.respectandlisten.org/nt-intervention/stronger-futures.html
Respect and Listen: http://www.respectandlisten.org/uploads/downloads/NT_Intervention/Strong...
March/April 2012: "Conclusion: CLAs [Community Living Areas] are an important part of the land base for Northern Territory Aboriginal people. The potential in this legislation is for the Aboriginal owners of CLAs to be marginalised. ... The wide scope of regulations that can be made under the legislation poses a threat to the integrity of the CLAs. ... The proposed provisions are in danger of being discriminatory. ... The Stronger Futures Bill represents a potential and significant threat to Aboriginal people in respect of the precarious toehold on country provided by excisions, that is, Community Living Areas."

February 2012: "With regard to land reforms, we are concerned that the proposed legislation may not be adequately formed by the free, prior and informed consent of parties who are directly impacted by the proposed legislation. The Government’s stated predisposition in favour of 'mainstreaming' of social housing management, and championing of individual household home ownership, when combined with the legislation’s land tenure reform, has the very ready potential to negatively impact on the long term social fabric of town camps and community living areas."

31 Jan 12: "Land reform measures undermine Aboriginal Land Rights and suggest there may be another agenda. The flawed philosophy of forcing Aboriginal people from their own homelands into hub towns is disempowering and callous and one that could lead to dysfunction in the hub towns as Aboriginal people from different tribal areas with diverse traditions, customs and culture try to co-exist. Aboriginal people will have to live on another’s country and be denied their connection to living and practicing culture on their own land (a right which should be unalienable and guaranteed under UNDRIP) ... Aboriginal people living in Prescribed Areas report their despair and sense of disempowerment because of the swathe of measures being imposed upon them from the top down including, ... the complete Commonwealth control over regulations in Community Living Areas, ...

- Article

Central Land Council: Community Living Areas
Community Living Areas are small Aboriginal living areas excised from pastoral leases.
http://www.clc.org.au/articles/info/community-living-areas
http://www.clc.org.au/articles/cat/community-living-areas/
"While the Land Rights Act gave many Aboriginal people in the Northern Territory their traditional lands back, those whose country was on a pastoral lease, were left out. Unless the traditional owners had bought the pastoral lease, it couldn’t be claimed as Aboriginal land under the Land Rights Act. Of course pastoral leases are very expensive and difficult to buy so very few people got their land back in this way. Otherwise Aboriginal people could only claim Crown land."

Central Land Council: Stronger Futures: Reform to community Living area legislation needed says CLC
http://www.clc.org.au/media-releases/article/stronger-futures-reform-to-...
20 Feb 12: "The Central Land Council is calling for comprehensive and urgent reform to legislation governing Community Living Areas (CLAs).
CLAs are small areas of land excised from pastoral leases for Aboriginal people who were unable to claim land under the Aboriginal Land Rights Act because their land was on a pastoral lease.
The CLC says while it supports Australian and Northern Territory Government efforts to formalise land tenure in Aboriginal communities, it is deeply concerned that quick fixes to NT legislation governing Community Living Areas (CLAs) could leave the Aboriginal landowners and other stakeholders vulnerable to uncertainty."

17 Mar 13: "A long-running legal battle to eject a Northern Territory Shire from an Aboriginal community has entered mediation. The Amoonguna Community Council Incorporated initiated the legal action six years ago when the MacDonnell Shire took over. The head of the community council, Marie Ellis, said the mediation was requested by the Shire, but that it was still unclear exactly what will be on the negotiating table. Ms Ellis said that the dysfunction in her community had worsened under the management of the MacDonnell Shire, and that they had had not done enough to tackle the key problem of alcohol abuse."

24 Jan 13: "Introducing regional councils is one option being considered for the Northern Territory among a range of proposed changes to local government. Local Government Minister Adam Giles said a 21-member Regional Governance Working Group had reviewed the functions and performance of shires and councils in developing proposals to improve local government in regional and remote communities. "The shire councils created in July 2008 made some progress across some issues, although in most cases, they failed to recognise the input of their community members," Mr Giles said."
