The Australian government is deeply disappointed about the destruction of Indigenous sacred sites at Juukan Gorge in Western Australia. This was an action approved in 2013 under section 18 of the WA Aboriginal Heritage Act. The Western Australian government has commenced a review of that act. The Australian government is committed to ensuring that Commonwealth law provides the right protection for Indigenous cultural heritage, and this is being considered through the current independent review of the EPBC Act.
