| Details of the Agreement Commencement The ILUA commences on the date that it is executed by all parties. It operates for the duration of the mining licence unless it is terminated by the agreement in writing by all parties. Agreement The parties agree that Part 2, Division 3, Subdivision P of the Native Title Act 1993 (Cth), which concerns the right to negotiate, does not apply to the grant and use of the mining licence. The parties also agree to: - the State of Victoria granting the mining licence to the proponent and any the granting of any consent required by or on behalf of the proponent pursuant to the licence in respect of the licence area; - the use of the licence and of any consent required pursuant to the licence by the proponent in respect of the licence area; and - that any such licence granted, or any mining carried out in respect of the licence area pursuant to the licence is valid. The licence area is the area of land and/or waters covered by this ILUA. Native Title in the ILUA Area The Dja Dja Wurrung Peoples filed a native title claim with the Federal Court of Australia as proceeding VID6001/00 on 19 July 2000. On 28 March 2013, the Victorian Government and the Dja Dja Warrung people reached a native title settlement, recognising the Dja Dja Wurrung people as the traditional owner group for approximately 266,532 hectares of Crown land in central Victoria. The ILUA area is subject to this land. | ||
