Description

The National Native Title Tribunal of Australia (NNTT) works with people to develop an understanding of native title and reach enduring native title and related outcomes that recognise everyone's rights and interests in land and waters (see types of applications). It works in an impartial and fair way, taking into account the views and concerns of everyone involved in the native title process. Hundreds of agreements have been documented throughout Australia since the Tribunal was established in 1994. The Tribunal is an Australian Commonwealth Government agency set up under the Native Title Act 1993. It is part of the Attorney-General's portfolio and mediates native title claims under the direction of the Federal Court of Australia.
