INTRODUCTION 1 The Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) (the Act) has been amended this year by the Native Title Amendment Act 2007 (Cth) (Act No 61 of 2007) which relevantly came into force on 15 April 2007, and then by the Native Title Amendment (Technical Amendments) Act 2007 (Act No 125 of 2007) which relevantly came into force on 21 July 2007. 2 This is one of 55 applications for the determination of native title under s 61 of the Act which have been the subject of advice by the Native Title Registrar (the Registrar) under s 66C of the Act. To explain the significance of that advice, it is necessary to refer to s 66C and s 94C of the Act. The full list of 55 applications (there is one duplication) is contained in the advices of the Registrar which are referred to below and which are filed.
