As I have pointed out before, the Commonwealth is not party to these ILUAs. The Native Title Act—you know this, Senator—provides a system of registration. But the Commonwealth is not a party to these agreements. In relation to these broader matters about which you ask, we had a Senate committee. Perhaps you explored the matter at that stage. But if you have any questions to ask me about the legal meaning and effect of particular government amendments, then please ask them.
