OUR PROPERTY
RIGHTS TO FRASER ISLAND
We were in occupation and possession of our lands, waters and seas of Fraser
Island when British Sovereignty was declared, making us British subjects,
and hence entitled to Possessory Tenure under Common Law.
This legal fact is the basis for the listing of Fraser Island
for World Heritage by the United Nations World Heritage Commission.
The Queensland Parks & Wildlife Service manage our property as Trustees,
not the owners.
We are taking the initiative to run our own tourism and cultural activities
as recommended by the Management Plan submitted to the United Nations.
We have been most frustrated by our trustee, the Queensland Parks & Wildlife
Service, preventing us from fulfilling our aspirations for our island.
THE QUEENSLAND GOVERNMENT SUMISSION TO
THE UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE CONVENTION
Commission of Inquiry into the Conservation, Management & Use of Fraser
Island & the Great Sandy Region, Supplementary Volume, Vol 1: Part 1,
May 1991 Appendix 3, page 78 Conclusion, reads in part:
" The legal entitlements to the land at Fraser Island
and the Great Sandy Region were never voluntarily surrendered by the Aboriginal
people. No legislation has been passed extinguishing their possessory or
Aboriginal title, with the possible exception of legislation granting
fee simple title. In any event the statute of limitations may prevent Aboriginal
claimants pursuing those who hold fee simple title. However, the Crown cannot
maintain a defence using the Statute of Limitations against the Aboriginal
people in relation to Crown land as such a defence is not available to a trustee
against its beneficiaries. "
TERRA NULLIUS . . .
. . . . . . . What was
terra nullius?
Statement by Justice Brennan of the High Court of Australia.
" Terra nullius is a Latin term meaning 'land belonging to no one'.
When colonising Australia, the British Government used this term to justify
the dispossession of Indigenous people. The British colonists did not recognise
the land was being used as Indigenous people did not use the land in the same
way as the British. The British saw no evidence of agricultural, social or
religious structure like their own, and therefore incorrectly concluded
that Indigenous people did not own the land but simply roamed it. By using
the principle of terra nullius, the British Government claimed sovereignty
over Australia, ignoring the rights of Indigenous people who had lived
there for at least 60 000 years.
The commonon law of this country would perpetuate injustice if it were to
continue to embrace the notion of terra nullius and persist in characterising
the Indigenous inhabitants of the Australian colonies as people too low in
the scale of social organisation to be acknowledged as possessing rights and
interests in land. "
