One Nation NSW Senate candidate Mark Latham has announced the Aboriginal Rescue Plan, which proposes to abolish the Aboriginal Land Council and to use the $5 billion in assets from the NSW Aboriginal Land Trust to pay for education, relocation, job training and employment subsidies.
The NSW One Nation leader says the Land Council is now the third largest land owner in NSW, but there are problems with this type of management as the ‘whole notion’ of land rights means a community is kept in a location that ‘has no economic success’. Mr Latham says he thinks the Land Council has failed, and that ‘it’s not social justice’ to leave people on long-term welfare which passes from generation to generation.
