RNTBCs are prescribed bodies corporate whose name appears on the National Native Title Register as the bodies which hold and/or manage native title on behalf of traditional owners once native title has been determined to exist. They are regulated by the Native Title (Prescribed Bodies Corporate) Regulations 1999 (PBC Regulations).

Programme overview

Aligned with its legislative functions, the ILC assists Indigenous people with land acquisition and land management. Projects in the two programmes are developed by:

• Calling for land acquisition and land management applications on an annual basis;

• Initiating strategic projects in collaboration with Indigenous people, other agencies and partners that target Indigenous training and employment outcomes; and

• Operating viable agricultural and tourism business to deliver training and employment opportunities for Indigenous people.

The ILC assesses proposed projects against programme criteria to ensure that:

• Achievable and sustainable benefits will be delivered to Indigenous people;

• The applicant/landholder has or will have the capacity to manage the land and proposed land use;

• The land use will be viable and sustainable;

• There is a clear plan and primary purpose for use of the land;

• The land is suitable for the proposed land use; and

• Sound business and environmental practices will be followed.
