In the struggle against aqua nullius, Indigenous people’s right to make decisions about water on Country is a priority.
First Nations people have almost no say in how water is used in Australia. The Productivity Commission’s latest report does little to address that.
The decision recognises that water rights are critical for Indigenous people to restore customs, protect their culture, become economically independent and heal Country.
Across the NSW portion of the Murray-Darling Basin, Aboriginal people make up almost 10% of the population. Yet they hold a mere 0.2% of all available surface water.
