Function edit

Registered Aboriginal Parties act as the "primary guardians, keepers and knowledge holders of Aboriginal cultural heritage" in Victoria.[1][2][3]

They are the approximate equivalent to land councils (mostly in the Northern Territory) or Aboriginal or Indigenous corporations in the other states. If the body registers a claim with the National Native Title Tribunal under the Native Title Act 1993 (Cwth), they are referred to as a prescribed body corporate (PBC) until such time as a determination is made, when they become a Registered Native Title Body Corporate, or RNTBC, registered with the Office of the Registrar of Indigenous Corporations under the Corporations (Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander) Act 2006 (Cwth).[4][5][6]

According to the Department of Premier and Cabinet:[1]

RAPs have responsibilities under the Act relating to the management of Aboriginal cultural heritage, including:

  • evaluating Cultural Heritage Management Plans
  • providing advice on applications for Cultural Heritage Permits
  • making decisions about Cultural Heritage Agreements
  • providing advice or application for interim or ongoing Protection Declarations.

Current RAPs edit

Aboriginal people apply to the Victorian Aboriginal Heritage Council (VAHC), who determines which applicants will be registered as Registered Aboriginal Parties (RAPs).[1][7]

As of June 2021, there are 11 registered parties, covering about 74% of Victoria:[2]
