Preparing community and group-land records

Begin with the land records and the issue to resolve. A trusted representative may attend with your consent. Explain who is affected and how the group’s decisions are made; the advocate can then discuss the appropriate legal and mediation options.

- Bring membership/register records, allocation documents and maps.
- Bring notices, agreements and earlier decisions about the land.
- Identify disputed boundaries, grazing access or inheritance concerns.
- Ask whether lawful mediation involving agreed community representatives or elders is suitable.

General preparation information; ask an advocate about your circumstances.
