Native Title and Cultural Heritage Processes Review
448. Mr Lachlan Hunter to
the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs:
I refer to the
review of the native title and Aboriginal cultural heritage processes, which is
due to conclude this month, with the final report to be provided to the Minister
for Aboriginal Affairs and the Premier. The terms of reference require
consultation with key stakeholders, including the agricultural sector, yet the
head reviewer has told the Pastoralists and Graziers Association of WA that
personal interests are tangential to this review.
What consultation is
actually taking place with agricultural and pastoral stakeholders and
landholder groups, such as the PGA?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the member
for the question. Consultation is taking place in accordance with the terms of
reference.
