Northern Territory Aboriginal Sacred Sites Act 1989

The Authority shall, where it is satisfied that, in relation to an application under section 19B:

the work or use of the land could proceed or be made without there being a substantive risk of damage to or interference with a sacred site on or in the vicinity of the land; or

an agreement has been reached between the custodians and the applicant,

issue an Authority Certificate to the applicant (which, in the case where an agreement referred to in paragraph (b) has been reached, is in accordance with the agreement):

describing the part or parts of the land on which the work proposed in the application may be carried out or use made (or on which the work may not be carried out or use made, as the case may be) with sufficient particularity to enable the land and part or parts to be identified; and

setting out the conditions, if any, on which under this Act the work may be carried out or use made as the Authority thinks accords with the custodians' wishes or, if an agreement has been reached between the custodians and the applicant, accords with that agreement.
