The issue

The ACT Government has no policy framework designed to meet the needs of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community of Canberra.

We call on the Government to:

1.       Agree to the immediate development of a comprehensive Indigenous policy framework that has at its centre an unambiguous commitment to the right of the Aboriginal community to self-determination and self-management and the right to be involved, through Aboriginal community controlled organisations and processes in the design and delivery of services for the Aboriginal Community of Canberra; and

2.       Ensure that Boomanulla Oval is fully restored to full use as a matter of urgency and returned without any further delay to Aboriginal community control and management.

By signing this petition you support the right of the Aboriginal community to self-determination and self-management and want to see the restoration of Boomanulla Oval and return of the Oval to Aboriginal community control and management.
