 | | The committee found that a law passed to restrict Aboriginal land claims (the so-called Wik legislation) appeared to be in breach of the UN convention on the elimination of all forms of racial discrimination, to which Australia is a signatory. | | | The Senate, which the government does not control, added over 200 amendments to the Native Amendment Bill. | | | The court ruled in a case in which a Queensland Aborigine was prosecuted for hunting crocodiles without a permit. |

| | Indigenous Australians - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In the resulting historic and controversial Gove land rights case, Justice Blackburn ruled that Australia had been terra nullius before European settlement, and that no concept of Native title existed in Australian law. | | | Strictly speaking, "Aborigine" is the noun and "Aboriginal" the adjectival form; however this latter is often also employed to stand as a noun. | | | Indigenous Australians were given the right to vote in Commonwealth elections in Australia in November 1963, and in state elections shortly after, with the last state to do this being Queensland in 1965. |
