Tennant Creek, Northern Territory: Patta Warumungu people were the first Aboriginal group in Australia to negotiate a consent determination within a township. In that sense, Patta Aboriginal Corporation RNTBC has always been at the intense edge of the interaction between western law and Aboriginal law. Then and now, Aboriginal governance structures have been at the centre of all decision-making processes. The corporation is working on reinforcing these processes by having them reflected in their rule book.
