#### 12AAB Grant of land to Anindilyakwa Land Trust etc. Immediate grant of land to Anindilyakwa Land Trust (1) The Governor‑General may: (a) execute a deed of grant to the Anindilyakwa Land Trust of an estate in fee simple in so much of the land in the area of the Anindilyakwa Land Council as was included in any Arnhem Land type 1 deed (regardless of whether the deed also included other land); and (b) deliver it to the Anindilyakwa Land Trust. The deed of grant is not a legislative instrument. > Note: See subsection (9) for the definition of Arnhem Land type 1 deed. Delayed grant of land to Anindilyakwa Land Trust (2) The Governor‑General may: (a) execute a deed of grant to the Anindilyakwa Land Trust of an estate in fee simple in so much of the land in the area of the Anindilyakwa Land Council as was included in any Arnhem Land type 2 deed; and (b) deliver it to the Anindilyakwa Land Council on the condition that the Council hold it in escrow and deliver it to the Anindilyakwa Land Trust when all of the estates and interests in that land held by a person (other than the Crown) have come to an end, whether by surrender to the Crown or otherwise. The deed of grant is not a legislative instrument. > Note: See subsection (9) for the definition of Arnhem Land type 2 deed. Application of other provisions of this Act (3) The provisions of this Act apply to a grant under subsection (1) or (2) as if it were a grant under subsection 12(1). > Note: One of the consequences of this subsection is that subsection 12(4) will apply to determine when a deed of grant executed under subsection (1) or (2) of this section takes effect. Another consequence is that the Anindilyakwa Land Trust will be able to apply under subsection 12(5) to have such a deed registered. Land no longer held by Arnhem Land Aboriginal Land Trust (4) The following table sets out the effect on: (a) an Arnhem Land type 1 deed or an Arnhem Land type 2 deed that included land in the area of the Anindilyakwa Land Council (regardless of whether the deed also included other land); and (b) the boundaries of the land that is held by the Arnhem Land Aboriginal Land Trust. ```html <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="border-collapse:collapse"><thead><tr><td colspan="3" style="width:353.15pt; border-top:1.5pt solid #000000; border-bottom:0.75pt solid #000000; padding-right:5.4pt; padding-left:5.4pt; vertical-align:top"><p class="TableHeading"><span>Deeds of grant</span></p></td></tr><tr><td style="width:7.4pt; border-top:0.75pt solid #000000; border-bottom:1.5pt solid #000000; padding-right:5.4pt; padding-left:5.4pt; vertical-align:top"><p class="Tabletext" style="page-break-after:avoid"><span style="font-weight:bold"></span></p></td><td style="width:90.7pt; border-top:0.75pt solid #000000; border-bottom:1.5pt solid #000000; padding-right:5.4pt; padding-left:5.4pt; vertical-align:top"><p class="Tabletext" style="page-break-after:avoid"><span style="font-weight:bold">For this deed:</span></p></td><td style="width:233.45pt; border-top:0.75pt solid #000000; border-bottom:1.5pt solid #000000; padding-right:5.4pt; padding-left:5.4pt; vertical-align:top"><p class="Tabletext" style="page-break-after:avoid"><span style="font-weight:bold">the result is:</span></p></td></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td style="width:7.4pt; border-top:1.5pt solid #000000; border-bottom:0.75pt solid #000000; padding-right:5.4pt; padding-left:5.4pt; vertical-align:top"><p class="Tabletext"><span>1</span></p></td><td style="width:90.7pt; border-top:1.5pt solid #000000; border-bottom:0.75pt solid #000000; padding-right:5.4pt; padding-left:5.4pt; vertical-align:top"><p class="Tabletext"><span>An Arnhem Land type 1 deed that included part of the land in the area of the Anindilyakwa Land Council and no other land</span></p></td><td style="width:233.45pt; border-top:1.5pt solid #000000; border-bottom:0.75pt solid #000000; padding-right:5.4pt; padding-left:5.4pt; vertical-align:top"><p class="Tabletext"><span>The deed is taken to be revoked.
