	Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		ATSIC was established by Bob Hawke's Labor government through the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission Act 1989 (the ATSIC Act), which took effect on 5 March 1990.
		In 2003, ATSIC became embroiled in controversy over litigation surrounding its Chairman Geoff Clark, relating to his alleged participation in a number of gang rapes in the 1970's and 1980's, and because of allegations of mismanagement.
		ATSIC was formally abolished at midnight 24 March 2005.

	Peter Garrett : Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission Amendment Bill 2005
		In some ways it seems that Aboriginal people not having a white picket fence around a house, title to land and policies that permit that to happen is a way of explaining the poverty that they have to live with now.
		Aboriginal community-controlled health services, as members of the House know, came into being as a result of a strong social movement amongst Aboriginal people who were seeking to have greater control over their lives and to have control over the provision of health services.
		Aboriginal people historically have sought to become party to those agreements, but they were not party to the agreements and the decisions were made without their consent.
