Today we host a post by Dr Hannah McGlade who explains in detail the issues with the WA Aboriginal Heritage Act — passed weeks after the parliamentary inquiry report on the destruction of caves at Juukan Gorge 1/3 indigconlaw.org/home/western…
She explains the WA Act is the subject of an emergency request to the UN Committee on the Elimination of Race Discrimination, which explained how the law entrenches systemic racial discrimination against Aboriginal traditional owners 2/3
Just this morning, the UN Committee has responded, expressing its concern about the lack of engagement prior to the enactment of the Act, and the Act itself. It has called on WA government to respond. Read the report here 3/3 tbinternet.ohchr.org/Treatie…
