Mornington Interchurch Aboriginal Awareness Group (Victoria)
Media Release of 30 Apr 12
The Mornington Interchurch Aboriginal Awareness Group, which draws its membership from five Christian denominations on the Mornington Peninsula, has had first hand contact with the Elders of the Yolgnu nations of north east Arnhem Land and their concerns for more than a year. The opposition of many Indigenous clan leaders, particularly the Yolgnu Elders, to the Federal Government's "Stronger Futures" legislation, is very well known to us. As a Group, we strongly support their criticisms set out in their current statement of the Yolgnu Nations Assembly of the legislation about to go before the Senate for debate.On the occasion of the original Howard Government's Emergency Intervention, we made contact with the Yolgnu Elders, and studied the concerns they expressed with their people, especially how they were being discriminated against by the Intervention's actions, and without any effective consultation - before or afterwards...

Secretariat of National Aboriginal and Islander Child Care (SNAICC)
Media Release of 2 May 12: Statement by SNAICC Chairperson Dawn Wallam
SNAICC stands in solidarity with Yolŋu Nations Assembly -
SNAICC stands in solidarity with the Yolŋuw Makarr Dhuni (Yolŋu Nations Assembly) ofWestern, Central and East Arnhem Land.The Yolŋu Nations have called on the Senate to discard in full the Stronger Futures packageof bills that, if enacted, would extend the intervention in Northern Territory Aboriginal communities for 10 years. SNAICC agrees with this unambiguous position. In our submission to the Senate Community Affairs Legislation Committee, SNAICC recommended that the legislation be completely redeveloped in accordance with international human rights laws to which Australia is bound. Some of the basic human rights that SNAICC considers are not fully reflected in the Stronger Futures bills are the right to self-determination and the right for communities to give their free, prior and informed consent to measures that may affect them. These are the same principles that the Yolŋu Nations are asking the Australian and Northern Territory governments to uphold - and to work in meaningful partnership with Aboriginal communities to arrive at effective long-term solutions...

Statement of 3 May 12
"The Josephite SA Reconciliation Circle, together with our mentor, Kaurna Elder Dr Alitya Rigney join our voices with those of the Yolgnu Nations Assembly who released their Statement yesterday, May 2, 2012. Together with the Assembly, we 'reject the Stronger Futures Bill (and those associated) and call on the Senate to discard these Bills in full.' Since the inception of the Intervention into the NT in 2007, our Circle has campaigned against this disempowering legislation. Now, in support of the Yolngu Nations, we once again call on both Federal and NT Governments to work with Aboriginal communities rather than impose their own decisions. Many of our members have a teaching background so realise the effectiveness of children learning in their own language. Together with the Yolgnu Nations, we therefore also call 'for an end to the Northern Territory Government's Compulsory Teaching in English for the First Four Hours of Each Day policy.' ... "

Media Statement: Yolŋu Nations reject "Stronger Futures"
The Yolŋu Makarr Dhuni, an assembly of eight nations in the Western, Central and East Arnhem Land areas of the Northern Territory, have released a statement rejecting the Federal Government's Stronger Futures legislation. Graeme Mundine, Executive Officer of the Aboriginal Catholic Ministry, Sydney Archdiocese has welcomed the statement. Mr Mundine said "The statement by the Yolŋu Nations Assembly cannot be any clearer. The Yolŋu have consistently asked for partnership and self-determination, not intervention and discrimination. The Yolŋu peoples do not want disempowering relationships with Government. "The Yolŋu Assembly are also asking all NT Traditional Owners to refuse to participate in land lease negotiations and approval of exploration licenses until the Government throws out the Stronger Futures legislation. In doing this the Yolŋu Nations are clearly stating they have had enough of being pressured to agree to things that are negatively impacting their communities...

Yet the Government is ignoring all this informed opposition and is pushing through its own agenda to pass the Stronger Futures legislation...

National Congress of Australia's First Peoples
Announcement of 4 May 12: Congress says Govt should stop, listen and test NT laws for human rights violations
Congress says it will continue to oppose new Intervention laws because they have not been tested for human rights violations as part of its on‐going support to Aboriginal people in the Northern Territory. Congress Co‐Chairs Jody Broun and Les Malezer said more Aboriginal people are calling for the laws before Parliament to be scrapped, most recently the Yolgnu Nations Assembly, which represents 8000 traditional owners in west, central and east Arnhem Land."Here is another significant group of our peoples, directly affected by the laws, who are actually calling this legislation 'racist' in their letter to the Prime Minister," said Mr. Malezer. "This is a strong and simple message to the Government that these laws must be independently reviewed to ensure they do not breach human rights standards and international obligations."The Government has ‘willful deafness' on such a fundamental issue, even after critical reports on the Intervention by the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights and the Special Rapporteur for Indigenous Peoples...

6 May 12: Catholic Religious support the Yolŋu Nations Statement
"Catholic Religious Australia acknowledges with respect and fully supports the Yolŋu Nations Statement. Catholic Religious Australia supports the Yolŋu Nations' call to reject the legislation of the 'Stronger Futures Northern Territory 2011 Bills'. "We have joined with the many Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander and other Australians who have often spoken about the need to consult Aboriginal people and their Elders in the planning of actions and recommendations that will affect their lives rather than legislating and imposing obligations and rules." Catholic Religious Australia urges the Federal Government and the Northern Territory Government to listen to the Yolŋu Nations and their requests to abandon this legislation, to honour the legitimate role of the Land Councils and to end interventionist policies. The Yolŋu Nations clearly state that the way forward is through partnership based on the principles of Self-determination."

Public Public Health Association of Australia (PHAA)
Media Release May 2012 - Partnership approach missing in Stronger Futures legislation -
"The Public Health Association of Australia (PHAA) is calling on the government to listen to the concerns of the Yolnju Nations Assembly in relation to the new Stronger Futures legislation proposed for the Northern Territory. "Lack of negotiations and the tight time frame of community consultations demonstrate a lack of community ownership and a breakdown in government relationships with communities," said Vanessa Lee, Vice President of the PHAA. "There is no evidence of community ownership in the legislation. This will make it difficult for the Australian government to achieve the Council of Australian Government’s broader objectives. There is also an underlying issue in relation to the ongoing abuse of trust by government services which continues to undermine community governance and create a sense of disempowerment amongst these people. "The PHAA is concerned about the violations of human rights that are inherent in the proposed Stronger Futures legislation. ... "

Social Policy Connection (SPC)
Statement of Support for the Yolngu Nations Assembly regarding the Stronger Futures Legislation - May 2012 -
"Social Policy Connections (SPC) is an independent, ecumenical, non-profit organisation, motivated and informed by Christian social thinking. Our aim is to expand awareness in Australia of social justice issues, as well as to influence public policy-nationally and globally-for the benefit of all, especially the most disadvantaged. Given our vision is for a fairer society where all Australians can share equitably in the prosperity of our land, we are committed to seeing disadvantaged communities raised up to enjoy greater wellbeing. We are disappointed that the Stronger Futures legislation has not taken account of the concerns raised by the Yolngu Nations. The important principle of self-determination which underpinned much of the reconciliation work of the past two decades is eroded when the Indigenous voice is not respected and acted upon. ... "

Women for Wik
Statement of 11 May 12
Women for Wik respectfully support the Yolgnu Elders' Statement in their determined opposition to The Stronger Futures Legislation. This legislation will undermine the human rights of Aboriginal communities in the Northern Territory until 2022 - and will renew and even expand some of the harshest measures under the Howard Government's' Northern Territory Emergency Response for ten more years according to ANTar. We join an increasing number of national organisations and concerned individuals supporting this important Statement. Opponents of the Bill include former PM Malcolm Fraser, Australian Bishops, Religious and Leaders of the Congregation; The Uniting Church of Australia; The Archdiocese of Sydney's Aboriginal Catholic Ministry; The National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Catholic Council); concerned Australians; ANTAR; the Australian Catholic Social Justice Council; musicians Paul Kelly, Neil Murray and Archie Roach; the Institute of Sisters of Mercy; ACM of Melbourne and Sydney; The Secretariat of National Aboriginal and Islander Children and St Vincent de Paul Society National Council. The vast majority of the 454 submissions received were against the legislation, most showing the government's failureto show real evidence that the Stronger Futures model has or can improve their lives, and more than 35,000 people signed the petition opposing it.

National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Catholic Council (NATSICC)
8 May 12: NATSICC Calls For Senators Not To Pass Stronger Futures Northern Territory Bill 2011
"The National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Catholic Council (NATSICC) fully endorses the stance taken by the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference and Catholic Religious Australia in calling for Senators not to pass the Stronger Futures Northern Territory Bill 2011. NATSICC have been consulting and listening to our Aboriginal brothers and sisters in the Northern Territory and have come to the conclusion that the Stronger Futures Bill is not the answer for all Aboriginal people. "In its true sense, it (the NTER) has really disempowered Indigenous Australians living in the NT" said one respondent to our consultations. Because our communities are made up of so many different language groups, ages, personalities and geographical boundaries, the council strongly advises against a 'one size fits all' mentality when legislating for our people."

Stronger Futures can be visionary. To be authentic it must reflect the Indigenous voices as well as observe International Human Rights laws and the United Nations Declaration on the rights of Australian Indigenous Peoples." ...
