Are you aware, Minister, that several traditional owners or custodians of parts of Cape York have written to their land council requesting to be excluded from the current Cape York United Number 1 claim and have written to the government to request funding to pursue their native title interests, independent of their land council, which is something that's technically afforded to them?
