What is Peter Boyle's perspective on Mabo?

‘The meaning of Mabo’ by journalist Peter Boyle

 

In the Mabo Case, an Australian court recognised for the first time some form of ‘native title’ to land held by the original inhabitants before European colonisation. However, the court also decided that this title has survived only in limited circumstances. Aborigines can claim native title today only if:

 

•            they can demonstrate traditional rights to the land and occupation according to traditional law

•            they have not moved (or been forced) off the land

•            the crown has not extinguished native title.

 

The first two requirements exclude the majority of Aboriginal people — especially those in the most populous and first colonised states. A few communities in remote areas of South Australia, Queensland, Western Australia and the Northern Territory may have a chance.
