Native title
“Native Title” has been recognised as a separate species of land ownership, as determined by the laws and customs of particular Aboriginal people or Torres Strait Islanders, rather than being derived from original Crown grants.
Northern Territory
An additional and separate legislative scheme also operates in relation to traditional Aboriginal land in the Northern Territory, which provides for the grant of freehold land to various Aboriginal Land Trusts.
In the Northern Territory, over 40% of the land mass has been granted under the Aboriginal Land Rights (Northern Territory) Act 1976 (Cth) to benefit Aboriginals. Under this Act, there are restrictions on how interests in the land can be disposed of.
