Native Title Mediator List

I am pleased to announce that I have been included in the Federal Court Native Title External Mediator List for 3 years

In making Federal Court orders in relation to the case management of claimant applications, the Court has referred to the ‘central role’ of the Tribunal in the mediation process. That role is apparent from the mandated terms of referral and is reinforced by the Federal Court’s facility to request the Tribunal to provide reports to the Court on the progress of mediation. The various statutory provisions relating to mediation conferences convened by the Tribunal are ‘ancillary to the referral of applications’ to the Tribunal for mediation and they ‘do not define the limits’ of the Tribunal’s role.
