SUMMARY:1901: Enactment of Immigration Restriction Act (White Australian Policy)
DESCRIPTION:At the end of the 19th century\, Australian colonies had concerns about who was migrating to Australia. With a rise in the number of migrants from China and the Pacific\, many colonies passed tough immigration legislation. The Immigration Restriction Act was one of the first Commonwealth laws passed after Federation. It was based on the existing laws of the colonies. The aim of the law was to limit non-white (particularly Asian) immigration to Australia\, to help keep Australia ‘British’. The ‘White Australia Policy’ was not fully removed until 1972.

SUMMARY:1996: Wik High Court decision
DESCRIPTION:In The Wik Peoples v The State of Queensland & Ors; The Thayorre People v The State of Queensland & Ors [1996] HCA 40 (‘Wik’)\, the High Court held that native title rights could coexist on land held by pastoral leaseholders. The High Court decided that: \n\n\n\n– a pastoral lease does not necessarily confer rights of exclusive possession on the pastoralist– the rights and obligations of the pastoralist depend on the terms of the lease and the law under which it was granted; – the mere grant of a pastoral lease does not necessarily extinguish any remaining native title rights– if there is any inconsistency between the rights of the native title holders and the rights of the pastoralist\, the rights of the native title holders must yield.
