Inquiry into economic self-determination and opportunities for First Nations Australians
The Law Council of Australia provided a submission to the Joint Standing Committee on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Affairs in relation to its inquiry into economic self-determination and opportunities for First Nations Australians. The terms of reference for this inquiry are drawn broadly, which is indicative of the breadth and scale of areas for growth and opportunity for First Nations economic self-determination.
Given the breadth of the inquiry and the Law Council’s remit, this submission is targeted towards how legal mechanisms and initiatives can make a positive impact along the path towards economic self-determination for First Nations people.
For the purposes of this submission, we have used the terms ‘Indigenous’, ‘Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander’ and ‘First Nations’ interchangeably to reference the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people belonging to this country.
