QuestionView source ↗
I refer to the reburial of Yagan’s Kaat, which I understand is scheduled for 10 July 2010, and ask:
(a) will the Derbarl Yerrigan Committee continue to operate following the opening of the park and the reburial ceremony, or will it cease to operate after the reburial; and
(b) what is the annual budget for this committee (broken down by sitting fees, allowances, administration support and operational budget)?

(a) The Derbarl Yerrigan Committee for the Reburial of Yagan's Kaat is a community initiated group mandated by the Noongar community to locate and bury Yagan's skull. The committee ceased operations following the reburial ceremony on 10 July 2010. An Indigenous Reference Group will be formed shortly to advise the City of Swan on its management of the Yagan Memorial Park at Belhus.
(b) There is no annual budget and members have not been paid sitting fees or allowances. Administrative support was provided by the Department of Indigenous Affairs. Operational costs associated with the reburial were drawn from funds provided by Lotterywest and the Outer Metropolitan Community Fund.
