Description:

The Native Title Act was an Australian piece of legislature which formally acknowledges the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and their respective traditional rights and interests to land and waters. It therefore entitles these indigenous people to a new level of recognition and rights which weren’t previously in place. This stands as a major progression in the Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders’ recognition and improvement of rights in this nation.
