1 Introduction
These are the Mowanjum Community By-laws 2005.
These by-laws have been made by the Governing Council of the association called Mowanjum Aboriginal Corporation and approved by the Lieutenant-Governor and Administrator.
The Mowanjum Aboriginal Corporation is an Aboriginal community to which the Aboriginal Communities Act 1979 applies.
As that Act says, these by-laws apply to you if you are on the community lands of that Aboriginal community and it does not matter if you are a member of the community or not.
Under that Act the Lieutenant-Governor and Administrator has said which lands are the community lands of the community.
You are a member of the community if you are a member of the Corporation under its constitution.
These by-laws are in addition to the laws of Western Australia.
