Scroll to the end of the page to download the program flyer.

Snapshot

This program aims to help PBCs better manage and protect their native title. It is very practical, with activities and group discussion centred on real situations faced by PBCs. The program is for people from Prescribed Bodies Corporate (PBCs) and Native Title Representative Bodies or Native Title Service Providers (NTRBs) who are involved in one or more PBCs.

• Registrations are now closed

Over a week it covers important knowledge for native title holders and PBCs about future acts, Indigenous Land Use Agreements (ILUAs), consulting with native title holders and making native title decisions. Activities will help you explore ways to share this information with the whole native title group, and how to set up processes for consultation and decision making which meet legal requirements, and are right for your PBC. Materials developed specially for PBCs are also provided, and can be taken back to the PBC to help with future work.

Note: This program does not address PBC governance and complying with the CATSI Act which are covered in programs offered by the Office of the Registrar of Indigenous Corporations (ORIC).

Topics include:

Part 1: Understanding future acts and ILUAs for PBCs (2 days)

Part 1 covers important information about future acts and ILUAs for PBCs and builds skills for explaining this information to the broader native title group.

Part 2: Group consultation and decision-making (2 days)

Part 2 focuses on what PBCs have to do to ensure native title holders are properly consulted in making decisions about native title matters. Starting from PBCs’ legal obligations, activities will also explore ways that PBCs consults with the native title group and how to make native title decisions that are right for each PBC.
