ANNEXURE ‘A’
DETERMINATION
THE COURT ORDERS, DECLARES AND DETERMINES THAT:
1. The Eastern Guruma Determination Area A ("Determination Area A") is the land and waters within the external boundary described in the First Schedule and depicted on the maps at Attachment 1 to the First Schedule other than the exclusions from the area as described in the First Schedule. In the event of any inconsistency between the written description in Schedule 1 and the areas depicted on the maps at Attachment 1, the written description prevails.
2. Native title exists in relation to Determination Area A.
3. The native title rights and interests are held by the persons described in the Third Schedule ("native title holders").
4. Subject to paragraphs 5 to 10:
(1) the nature and extent of the native title rights and interests held by the native title holders are non-exclusive rights to:
(a) enter and remain on the land, camp, erect temporary shelters, and travel over and visit any part of the land and waters;
(b) hunt, fish, gather or take and to use, share and exchange the resources of the land and waters such as food, water and medicinal plants and trees, timber, charcoal, ochre, stone and other traditional resources (excluding minerals);
(c) engage in ritual and ceremony on and in relation to the land and waters; and
(d) care for, maintain and protect from physical harm, particular objects, sites and areas of significance to the native title holders.
(2) The native title rights and interests set out in sub-paragraph (1) are exercisable in accordance with the traditional laws and customs of the native title holders for personal, domestic and non-commercial communal purposes (including social, medicinal, cultural, religious, spiritual and ceremonial purposes).
(3) The native title rights and interests set out in sub-paragraph (1) do not confer:
(a) possession, occupation, use and enjoyment on the native title holders to the exclusion of all others; nor
(b) a right to control the access of others to the land and waters of Determination Area A.
5. Notwithstanding anything in this determination the native title rights and interests include the right to take and use ochre to the extent that ochre is not a mineral pursuant to the Mining Act 1904 (WA), but do not include other minerals and petroleum as defined in the Mining Act 1904 (WA), Mining Act 1978 (WA), the Petroleum Act 1936 (WA) and the Petroleum Act 1967 (WA).
6. Section 47B of the Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) applies with the effect that any prior extinguishment in relation to the areas described in the Fourth Schedule is to be disregarded.
7. The native title rights and interests are subject to and exercisable in accordance with the laws of the State and the Commonwealth including the common law.
8. The nature and extent of other rights and interests in relation to Determination Area A in existence at the date of this determination are those set out in the Second Schedule.
9. The relationship between the native title rights and interests described in sub-paragraph 4(1) and the other rights and interests referred to in paragraph 8 ("the other rights and interests") is that:
(1) to the extent that any of the other rights and interests is inconsistent with the continued existence, enjoyment or exercise of the native title rights and interests, the native title rights and interests continue to exist in their entirety, but the native title rights and interests have no effect in relation to the other rights and interests to the extent of the inconsistency during the currency of the other rights and interests; and otherwise,
(2) the existence and exercise of the native title rights and interests do not prevent the doing of any activity required or permitted to be done by or under the other rights and interests, and the other rights and interests, and the doing of any activity required or permitted to be done by or under the other rights and interests, prevail over the native title rights and interests and any exercise of the native title rights and interests, but do not extinguish them.
10. Nothing in paragraph 9 is intended to affect the operation of Part F of the Hamersley Iron Pty Ltd – Eastern Guruma Indigenous Land Use Agreement (Area Agreement) ("ILUA") dated 27 November 2002 and registered on the Register of Indigenous Land Use Agreements on 5 March 2004 (Tribunal No. WI01/1). For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that the native title rights and interests co-exist with the "Agreed Interests" in the "Agreement Area" (as those terms are defined in the ILUA), the native title rights and interests can only be exercised in a manner that is consistent with the ILUA.
