COLVIN J: 1 A determination of native title is a significant cultural and legal event. It recognises the existence as against all people in the whole world of the common or group rights held by identified Aboriginal people who, by reason of their traditional laws and customs, have connection with an area of land in Australia. It recognises matters that reach back well before this Court and the institutions of the government of which it is part. It describes the nature and extent of native title rights in relation to the determination area, the nature and extent of any other interests and the relationship between those rights and interests. It deals with whether the declared rights and interests in respect of the determination area, both land and waters, now exist to the exclusion of all others. It does not make the connections or confer them. It determines the existence of them. They were there before the determination, but by order of the Court they receive the recognition and legal protection afforded by a determination of this Court. 2 Jurisdiction is conferred on this Court to make such a determination by consent. In particular, s 87 of the Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) provides for a determination to be made where there has been notification of the native title application in the manner required and the period for parties with interests to apply to become a party has ended, agreement has been reached between the parties to the application on the terms of an order, the agreement has been reduced to writing signed by the parties and filed with the Court, the Court is satisfied that the order is within the power of the Court and it appears to the Court that it is appropriate to make the determination provided for by the terms of the order.

Consent determination 3 Today, the Court makes a determination of native title by consent under s 87 of the Native Title Act in respect of an application known as the Giniyjawarrni Yoowaniya Riwi application. It concerns an area of land of approximately 2212 square kilometres which is approximately 420 km east of Broome and 843 km north-east of Port Hedland. The application is made by Aboriginal persons descended from 30 apical ancestors or Aboriginal persons recognised by those ancestors as having traditional rights and interests in the area under traditional law and custom. 4 The application is the second part of a claim that has been progressed in two parts. The first part was the subject of a consent determination on 25 October 2016: Street on behalf of the Yarrangi Riwi Yoowarni Gooniyandi People v State of Western Australia [2016] FCA 1250. It recognised claims by the Gooniyandi People. As to the second part, a new claim was brought by orders made on 1 December 2017. It included a wider claim group. It concerns land that is Gooniyandi, Kija and mixed Gooniyandi/Kija country. It was accepted as a registered claim on 11 June 2018. It has been duly notified and the notification period ended on 10 October 2018. It is advanced with the support of the Kimberley Land Council. 5 The applicants who brought the claim on behalf of the Giniyjawarrni Yoowaniya Riwi native title claim group are Mr Mervyn Street, Ms Helen Malo, Ms June Davis, Mr Eric (Wally) Cox, Ms Frances Dawson, Ms Marion Dolby, Mr Nathan Lennard, Ms Jane Holloway and Mr Wayne Wallaby. The proposed determination was considered at a meeting of the claim group held in the Fitzroy Crossing Recreation Centre on 22 November 2018. The terms of the proposed determination were presented to the meeting. There were questions and discussion. Those present resolved by show of hands to agree to and authorise the consent determination. 6 The parties who have been joined to the application are the State of Western Australia, the Shire of Derby/West Kimberley, the Shire of Halls Creek and three pastoralists with interests in the area being Sterling Jack Buntine, Consolidated Australian Pastoral Holdings Pty Ltd and Shiying-Yougawalla No 2 Pty Ltd. They have each agreed to the determination by signing a formal record to the effect that they have reached agreement on the terms of orders to give effect to the determination and that they consent to the making of the orders and a determination of native title in terms of the determination. 7 The agreed terms describe the rights and interest, the areas to which they pertain and describe the persons who are the holders of those rights and interests. They deal with the matters set out in s 225 of the Native Title Act.

Connection to country 8 On the evidence before me, Gooniyandi People use riwi to indicate country that belongs to particular people by connection. Kija People use taam to indicate country over which particular people have a connection. Although these connections have changed they have done so through traditional patterns, laws and customs. These connections have been the subject of a report by Dr Heather Lynes dated November 2017. Dr Lynes is well qualified to provide such a report. The State has considered the report and acted on legal advice in accepting that connections to the land in the claim area have been established. 9 The applicants and the State have agreed a short description of connection to country for the claim area the subject of the application. It is in the following terms: The Traditional Owners of the claim area belong to a regional society comprised of Aboriginal peoples and families from multiple language identifying groups, united in their cosmological belief system, known as the Ngarrangarni, as well as the traditional laws and customs deriving from the Ngarrangarni. Encompassed in the Ngarranggarni is the origins of the world as it is known, as well as a guide to how one should behave in order to maintain the social order. The Ngarranggarni forms the basis of normative rules about rights and interests in country in the claim area. At the time of British sovereignty in the claim area, in the Gooniyandi-identified areas of country, landed affiliations, which lead to rights and interests in land and waters, were claimed through two-step filiation - both on the paternal and maternal side - as well as spirit conception/spirit-centre and totemic affiliations. In the Kija-identified areas of country, there was a stronger realisation of patrifilial descent-based local group countries, while other affiliations to country that bestow rights and interests in lands and waters, such as spirit conception and maternal country, were also recognised. In areas of country that were identified as "mixed" Gooniyandi/Kija, a combination of the above-stated principles applied. Laws and customs relating to land and waters in the claim area continue to be based on principles of descent (including matrifiliation and patrifiliation) as well as spirit conception and ritual knowledge. All of the earliest anthropological reports place Gooniyandi and Kija peoples in and around the claim area. Frontier violence and the gradual establishment of pastoral stations in the claim area during the 1880s and 1890s caused the ancestors of the Traditional Owners to be settled onto various pastoral stations over the following decades. This allowed for the Traditional Owners' ancestors to remain on or close to their traditional countries in most instances. Senior Traditional Owners of the claim area grew up and worked on pastoral stations such as Fossil Downs, Lansdowne, Margaret River and Louisa Downs, which overlap and surround the claim area. Early researchers documented the nature and extent of the Traditional Owners' rights and interests in the claim area, as well as rules about the manner in which said rights and interests may be exercised. The rights to control access to and use of country, to access and use country, and to take and use resources are all explored by early researchers. Likewise, early researchers documented the Traditional Owners' rules regarding the protection of country, decision-making about country, access to country and the use of resources from country. The laws and customs of the Traditional Owners relating to cosmology, kinship, social organisation and ritual practices all date back to times before British sovereignty. Contemporary ethnographic accounts highlight that the rights and interests of the Traditional Owners continue to include the rights to speak for country, to control access to and use of country, the right to access country and use its resources as well as the right to protect places of traditional significance. The Traditional Owners also continue to adhere to rules about the ways these rights can be exercised, such as rules about protecting country, decision-making, controlling the use of country and taking its resources. The Traditional Owners' connection to the claim area can therefore be said to be based on laws and customs which have existed substantially unchanged since sovereignty.

Agreement to determination of native title 10 Where the procedures have been followed to notify an application and identify interested parties and thereafter those parties have freely and on an informed basis agreed the terms of a determination, then subject to the Court otherwise being satisfied that the determination orders are appropriate and any other matters that may be relevant to the exercise of discretion, the Court will exercise the statutory power to make the determination by consent without receiving evidence or embarking upon its own inquiry as to the matters that have been agreed: Ward v State of Western Australia [2006] FCA 1848 at [8]. The primary focus of the Court's consideration is upon the demonstration that there has indeed been the requisite agreement: Lander v State of South Australia [2012] FCA 427 at [11]. It does not embark upon its own inquiry as to the merits of the claim, but will consider evidence for the limited purpose of ensuring that the State in consenting has been a rational decision and is acting in good faith: Brown v Northern Territory of Australia [2015] FCA 1268 at [23]. 11 The provision for consent determinations is to encourage parties to resolve matters concerning native title without the delay and division that may be associated with a court hearing. In considering whether to approve a consent determination the Court has regard to this evident purpose: Lovett on behalf of the Gunditjmara People v State of Victoria [2007] FCA 474 at [36]. 12 For reasons I have given, I am satisfied that the agreement between the parties has been informed by due consideration of the connection of the members of the claim group to the land that comprises the claim area and that there is a proper foundation for the jurisdiction to make the orders sought. 13 In this case, the parties have had proper and experienced legal representation in reaching agreement. The State has been actively involved. The parties have directed their attention to assessing the claim and the connections of the claimants to the land. Searches have been conducted of land tenure, mining and petroleum registries to determine the nature and extent of any other interests and have included those identified interests in the determination.

The determination sought is appropriate 14 Section 87 provides that if other matters stated in the provision are established then the Court may make a determination by consent if the Court considers it appropriate to do so. Both the discretionary nature of the provision and the requirement for the Court to form a view that the determination is appropriate afford a degree of oversight and protection to ensure that the determination is being sought in circumstances that are consistent with the purposes of the Native Title Act and in the absence of any matter that might activate concern on the part of a Court acting judicially: Brown (on behalf of the Ngarla People) v State of Western Australia [2007] FCA 1025 at [22]. It is a broad protection to advance the purposes of the legislation when making consent orders and to ensure that an agreed determination is not given effect where there has been sharp practice, unfairness or impropriety, a lack of disclosure, a lack of good faith, a lack of advice or understanding or similar circumstance that would cause a Court guided by basic principles of justice and fairness to decline to approve the determination on the basis of consent of interested parties. 15 Further, as noted by Mortimer J in Freddie v Northern Territory [2017] FCA 867 at [18] when dealing with the appropriateness requirement in the similar power conferred by s 87A of the Native Title Act it is a requirement that 'recognises that the determination made by the Court is one made as against the whole world, and not just between the parties to the proceeding'. Therefore: The rights conferred are enduring legal rights, proprietary in nature and in recognising them through a determination, the Court must be conscious of their character. The nature of the rights informs considerations such as the clarity of the terms of the determination (as to the claim area, the nature of the native title rights and interests and the manner of affectation on other proprietary interests); the need for appropriate notification and then the free and informed consent of all parties; and finally the State's agreement that there is a credible and rational basis for the determination proposed. 16 Having considered the terms of the proposed orders and the above considerations I am satisfied that it is appropriate to make the determination provided for by the consent orders.

Nomination of prescribed body corporate 17 Where a native title determination is made the Court must also determine whether the native title is to be held in trust and if so by whom: s 56(1). There is provision in s 56(2) as to the steps to be taken by the Court in that regard. They begin with a request to be made by the Court for a representative of the native title holders to indicate whether they intend to have the native title held in trust. 18 By s 55, if a determination that native title exists is made then the Court must 'at the same time as, or as soon as practicable after, it makes a determination' make the determination required by s 56. There must also be a determination under s 57 of the prescribed body corporate. 19 The consent orders provide for a period of 12 months for a representative of the native title holders to indicate whether the holders intend to have the native title rights and interests held in trust or by an agent. If there is no such indication then the matter is to be listed for directions. 20 The determination provided for by the consent orders will not take effect until the making of the determinations under s 56 and s 57. So there is every incentive for the parties to act as soon as practicable. In that sense, there will only likely be delay if there are practical difficulties in making the necessary arrangements. In those circumstances, while the period of 12 months is relatively long, I am satisfied that the orders provide for the determination required 'as soon as practicable'.

Conclusion 21 I commend the parties and their representatives for bringing this important matter to a conclusion by way of agreement. 22 Being satisfied as to the statutory requirements I make orders in terms of the consent determination recognising native title rights in respect of the claim area which concerns land that is Gooniyandi, Kija and mixed Gooniyandi/Kija country. The Court thereby recognises the enduring traditional laws and customs observed by those peoples in respect of the land the subject of the determination. I certify that the preceding twenty-two (22) numbered paragraphs are a true copy of the Reasons for Judgment herein of the Honourable Justice Colvin.
