		Not every Aboriginal party is in the position of retaining legal advice to protect their rights in contractual agreements - therefore overriding protective legislation is needed to compel fair dealing where Aboriginal culture is the subject matter of the agreement.

		When the Labor government in a the early 1990s began to address issues such as reconciliation, the need for an Australian republic and cultural issues, the Liberals in opposition thundered that these were "distractions".

		This also requires acknowledgement that we failed to adequately recognise what was done and, with some noble exceptions, to make the most basic human response and enter into the hearts and minds of indigenous Australians.
