[edit]This is the main block of text that stimulated the "Essay like" tag. It's because it 1) is written like opinion rather than encyclopedic tone and 2) it's not cited:
- Aboriginal Law within Australia is sometimes portrayed as an undue control on various sectors of the Australian Aboriginal Community. It Victoria the recent legislation was a direct attack by government to curtail Aboriginal artifact activities by various Aboriginal Organisations. It was a direct response by government to Landholder, Developer, and land Management organisations that were protesting over having to pay royalties to Aboriginal Peoples in the areas that the project were developing. This led to wide spread project holdups with the state over a 10–15 years period.
- These organisations had the effect of holding up various government and private construction projects due to the nature of the Aboriginal Artifact materials found on many sites. The government decided to put into effect a schedule of rates and to appoint Aboriginal Organisations as being registered aboriginal parties (RAPS).
- The schedule of rates was screwed down over 500% on what used to be paid for the same service before the Act.
- The government effectively gutted the Victorian Aboriginal Cultural Heritage industry overnight. This was the whole point to the Victorian Legislation. To control the Cultural Heritage Industry, and to give in to pressure from developers, landholders, and government land management departments.
Is someone interested in finding citations for this information and rewording a bit to have a more impartial tone (e.g., "gutted", "direct attack", etc.) Phrases are opinion would be better put in quotes and attributed to the speaker. It would be good, too, to have balanced coverage of the information.--CaroleHenson (talk)
I came across this page while trying to quickly find something the history of legislation protecting Australia's heritage and it needs quite a bit of work to have at least the correct legislation and scope (not all of Australia's heritage is Aboriginal in origin). A few of us will be trying to improve this pageover the next few months. BTW Austli http://www.austlii.edu.au/ is a great reference source for legislation.
