(1)–(3) The
Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Bill 2021 is the culmination of over three years
of development and over 380 submissions from a wide range of stakeholders with
an interest in the future management and protection
of Aboriginal cultural heritage in Western Australia. In total, over 1 500
people have participated in around 175 workshops, stakeholder meetings
or public information sessions held across the state, including 28 held in the
Kimberley, 18 held in the Pilbara and 15 held in the goldfields. These
stakeholder engagements were attended by Aboriginal people and Aboriginal
organisations from across the state. The feedback
received from Aboriginal people and Aboriginal organisations during these
engagements directly informed the finalisation of the Aboriginal
Cultural Heritage Bill 2021.
