Section 374 — Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999: Simplified outline of this Subdivision

The following is a simplified outline of this Subdivision: The Minister must establish a Board for a Commonwealth reserve that is wholly or partly on indigenous people’s land, if the land council for that land (or traditional owners) and the Minister agree that there should be a Board for the reserve. The Board’s role is to make decisions and plans for management of the reserve, in conjunction with the Director. A majority of Board members must be indigenous people nominated by traditional owners if the reserve is wholly or mostly on indigenous people’s land.
