### sec.452A Land granted for Aboriginal or Islander inhabitants
Any person who, at the time when land was granted in trust under the repealed Act for the benefit of Aboriginal or Islander inhabitants, occupies any building or structure as the person’s residence, as an authorised resident on the land, shall, notwithstanding the grant in trust, be entitled to continue the person’s occupation of the building or structure upon the same terms and conditions as the person occupied it at the time of the grant until—
the trustee of the land determines otherwise and terminates the person’s right to occupy the building or structure; or
the trustee of the land and that person agree to new terms and conditions for the person’s occupation of the building or structure.
No permit, claim, licence or lease under the Mineral Resources Act 1989 is to be granted or exist in respect of land granted in trust under the repealed Act for the benefit of Aboriginal or Islander inhabitants unless the approval of the Governor in Council thereto has first been obtained.
In considering whether or not to approve a permit, claim, licence or lease in respect of land referred to in subsection (1) the Governor in Council shall have regard to the views of and any recommendation made by the trustee of the land in question.
