Registered representative
4A Registered representative
A registered representative of native title holders or native title claimants represents the Aboriginal group that holds or claims to hold native title in the land so that (for example)—
a notice is given to the Aboriginal group by giving it to the registered representative; and
a person negotiates with the Aboriginal group by negotiating with the registered representative; and
an agreement lawfully negotiated by the registered representative with respect to the land in which the native title is claimed or held is binding on the Aboriginal group.
The above examples are not intended to be an exhaustive statement of the ways in which a registered representative might act on behalf of the
Aboriginal group nor are they intended to suggest that the group may only act through the registered representative.
