Aboriginal Land Act 1991

An indigenous management agreement about the management of land must—

include a lot on plan description of the land; and

state the land will be managed in perpetuity as—

for land in the Cape York Peninsula Region—a national park (Cape York Peninsula Aboriginal land); or

for land in the North Stradbroke Island Region or on Moreton Island—an indigenous joint management area; and

state how the land is proposed to be managed; and

include details of any interim arrangements for its management before the approval of a management statement or management plan for the land; and

state the responsibilities of the environment Minister, and the chief executive under the Nature Conservation Act 1992, in relation to the management of the land; and

state the responsibilities of the trustee in relation to its management; and

include details of the process for developing a management statement or management plan for the land; and

include details of areas of the land to which general public access may be restricted; and

include information about the management of any infrastructure on the land; and

state how existing interests in the land will be managed and how future interests in the land will be created and managed.

An indigenous management agreement about the management of land that is a national park that is to become a national park (Cape York Peninsula Aboriginal land) or an indigenous joint management area must not result in a decrease, in the aggregate, in the public rights of access that existed in relation to the national park immediately before it becomes a national park (Cape York Peninsula Aboriginal land) or an indigenous joint management area.

An indigenous management agreement about the management of land may include other matters relevant to the management of the land that the trustee, or proposed trustee, for the land and the environment Minister consider appropriate.

An indigenous management agreement about the management of land can not be entered into without the consent of the environment Minister.
