Antinuclear

The Queensland Government has received two proposals to develop the Aurukun bauxite deposit in western Cape York. The government says it will evaluate the proposals based on their environmental merits as well as how they maximised benefits and returns to the native title holders, the Aurukun community and the state.

At least the government is using the right language in trying to maximised benefits and returns to aboriginal communities but to make sure, the government must release the details of the final contract showing that aboriginal groups are in deed receiving their fair share of profits. As I mentioned in my previous post, A treaty would help this process to achieve the best possible outcomes for all parties.
