However the parties may consent to any activity which has a high native title impact if the local government proposing the activity satisfies either one of the conditions: - The local government should give a notice to the native title party or the native title party's representative and complete consultation - If the activity involves a capital work, then the local government should give a list of all the capital works involving the activity and consensus should be reached about the activity being carried out. Commencement This agreement takes effect between the parties from the execution date and continues unless and until the agreement is terminated. Native Title Provisions The right to negotiate does not apply to any of the future acts as covered under the agreement.
