Aboriginal Communities Treaty Consultation

The NSW Government is consulting with Aboriginal communities over 12 months on desire for Treaty. This is led by three independent Treaty Commissioners.

The Commissioners will be co-designing and conducting an approach for community consultation. This will see whether NSW Aboriginal communities want a Treaty or agreement-making process. It will also help decide what that will look like.

Commissioners will be appointed for two-years and will provide reports directly to the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Treaty. They are supported by a discrete secretariat based in Aboriginal Affairs NSW.

Applications for Treaty Commissioners closed on Friday 17 May 2024 and are now being reviewed.
