She estimated that an extra $300 million was needed nationally each year to provide adequate and equitable healthcare services for Indigenous communities. ALP president Dr Lawrence said Australia s failure to sign a treaty has created unacceptable standards for Indigenous communities in health, education and quality of living. She cited the positive impact of agreements made by Canada, New Zealand and the US with their Indigenous populations. A proper treaty, from the whitefellas side, should be a commitment to better understanding, better education, better cultural acknowledgement and sensitivity, and a great commitment to a two-way process she said. Senator Ridgeway, the Democrats spokesman on Indigenous affairs, said that Indigenous people have to become the dominant players in their own lives.

Justice Richard Cooper had earlier handed down two determinations* recognising native title rights of the Wik and Wik Way peoples on more than 1.2 million hectares of land across the central western Cape. The determinations stem from the High Court s landmark Wik decision in 1996, which found native title could co-exist with pastoral leases. They follow years of negotiations between traditional owners, *determinations decisions (b) pastoralists, commercial fishing interests and State and Federal governments. Justice Cooper said, Through goodwill, the parties have achieved a mutually acceptable agreement which accommodates their particular interests. The native title determinations are the first in Queensland to be made over pastoral leases. Claimant Gladys Tybingoompa said many of the original claimants had passed away since the claim process began.

OR 12 20 Marks Question 9 Heritage and Identity (30 marks) (a) Using Source D and your own knowledge, discuss challenges in the renewal and maintenance of Aboriginal languages. 10 Source D Minding the language: students give voice to endangered words It s little lunch at Darlington Public school, and between mouthfuls of bread and peanut butter a young Aboriginal student is trying out her newly acquired skills in the Wiradjuri language. Nyan, she says, pointing to her shy, sticky grin. Nyan that s mouth. Although her Dhan-gadi family hail from the opposite end of the state to where the Wiradjuri language is spoken, she as much as any seven-year-old is capable of seeing the bigger picture knows she is contributing to the revitalisation* of a crucial part of Aboriginal culture under threat of extinction. Darlington Public, in the inner Sydney suburb of Chippendale, where a quarter of the students are Aboriginal, is part of a changing tide, precipitated by this country s first Indigenous languages policy. Today, the NSW Education Minister, Andrew Refshauge, will launch the cornerstone of that policy a new Aboriginal language syllabus for kindergarten to year 10, expected to be adopted by about 80 schools across the state from the beginning of next year. Dr Refshauge said, We know that language is at the heart of Aboriginal culture and identity revitalising languages is therefore critical to ensuring Aboriginal cultural identity is strong.
