ABORIGINAL AND TORRES STRAIT ISLANDER LAND HOLDING ACT 2013 No. 2 - SECT 4

4 Achieving Act's main object

(1) Achieving this Act's main object includes the following—

(a) the identification of outstanding lease entitlements;
(b) consultation, negotiation and agreement aimed at resolving practical obstacles to satisfying lease entitlements;
(c) consultation, negotiation and agreement aimed at resolving boundary problems affecting some 1985 Act granted leases.

(2) This Act allows for the deferral of the grant of a lease to satisfy a lease entitlement, having regard to the practical obstacles that may be identified.

(3) The purpose of a deferral is not to diminish a right to the grant of the lease, but is intended—

(a) to allow the resolution of the obstacles by agreement or a decision of the Land Court; and
(b) to ensure the grant, when made, is not affected by the obstacles in the way that would otherwise happen if there was a grant of the lease without an attempt at resolution.
