1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,840 Speaker 1: But we know that East Arnham, roper Golf and Victoria 2 00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:07,440 Speaker 1: Daily regional councils. They've called for an urgent review of 3 00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:12,080 Speaker 1: councils in eligibility to implement the federal Government's new Remote 4 00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:17,120 Speaker 1: Australian Employment Service Program. Now rope Goolf Regional Council Mayor 5 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 1: Tony Jack had said that despite meeting every criteria to 6 00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 1: provide services for the new training and Employment scheme, regional 7 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: councils are told that they are not Aboriginal enough to participate. Now, 8 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 1: he said, our joint membership of council and local authorities 9 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 1: is overwhelmingly Aboriginal. We are Aboriginal control. We are local 10 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: Aboriginal people elected by local Aboriginal people, and we challenge 11 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: the notion that local government does not meet this criteria. 12 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 1: Now joining me in the studio this morning, East Arnham 13 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 1: Regional Councilor Cyril Bucker Lunchbeak.

The reason why they 17 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 2: are may calling us non Aboriginal is because we are 18 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:14,960 Speaker 2: not for profit. 19 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: We do. 20 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 2: Make things right in our community and the money that 21 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 2: we have, we spend it all in the community.

I mean, what 37 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: did you think of that? 38 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 2: It was really irritating to hear what people said about 39 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 2: our community councils because we are councils and we are 40 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 2: local authority. We have been working with the community for 41 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: so many years and we helped so much. Your Aboriginal 42 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 2: people in our community and hearing this, it's it's really 43 00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 2: disappointing and they have not learn so much about us, 44 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 2: what we do in the community and for the community. 45 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: So your council, like the people that are on council 46 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 1: are they all Aboriginal? 47 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 2: They are Aboriginal. There's like yeah, and we make the decision, 48 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,920 Speaker 2: not our CEO or the officers. We make the decision 49 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 2: who and what do you want to do for the community. 50 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I mean Dale, as the CEO, what like, 51 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 1: what do you make of this decision that you know, 52 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: to be told that the council isn't Aboriginal enough when 53 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: everybody on the council is Aboriginal, I don't understand the 54 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: decision behind it. 55 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 3: Look, it's it's really really frustrating. And you know, I 56 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 3: started working up and he's done on land twenty one 57 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 3: years ago. And I'm a Balander, so non Aboriginal. But 58 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 3: I'll tell you it is great, great pride that I 59 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 3: keep working for these amazing leaders in the council and 60 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 3: the local thority members across the whole region. But look, 61 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 3: we've been battling this actually for a few years. Our 62 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 3: council and others in the NT forward across the NT 63 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 3: and nationally for recognition of Aboriginal Community control councils. And 64 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 3: then nationally we feel well because there's other communities aren't 65 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 3: like East Aarnham and rope Golf, et cetera, where it's 66 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 3: so strong. It was fifty percent, just over fifty percent 67 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,479 Speaker 3: for the national but we're way over there. We're one 68 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 3: hundred percent. Robiga's like ninety Aboriginal people running everything. So 69 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 3: you know about the preference we've found over the years, 70 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,919 Speaker 3: and it's come out here with this new CDP program 71 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 3: application is there's a clear preference one hundred percent for 72 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 3: Aboriginal corporations and then the next one is Aboriginal businesses 73 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,119 Speaker 3: and you need just over fifty percent on your board. 74 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 3: And and then then we're if they if any time 75 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,559 Speaker 3: we've seen we were talking all the other councils, now 76 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,159 Speaker 3: if any local all was involved, even if they're partnering 77 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 3: and rope Golf one's partner with a Ballander, a Western 78 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 3: non Aboriginal company in Queensland. They've won it for one 79 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 3: of the regions of rope of Golf, you know they 80 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 3: lost to out of their three for example. We have 81 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 3: so so that's just free. We find that crazy. And 82 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 3: we have also then interned the governance and the capacity 83 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 3: and always looping back and fed by the community what 84 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 3: they want this program or anything else. 85 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: And so has by the sounds of it, this federal 86 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 1: government program has changed over recent years, has it and 87 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 1: the way in which you can win a job? 88 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like about in our case, like rope Golf 89 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 3: and Big Daily are providing it today to this day 90 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 3: over the last few years ongoing. We pulled out about 91 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 3: twelve thirteen years ago because already it was eroded so much. 92 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 3: They still paying top up money, proper wage money, paying 93 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 3: you through your employer whoever that is a homeland or 94 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 3: arranger group or whatever it was, and not enough operational money. 95 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,119 Speaker 3: So it was just like you're uncandling, and there's Bunday 96 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 3: Bundy one, he's one of our great long serving councilors 97 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 3: puts it. Now people are getting peanut money. So the 98 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 3: new program is great. Finally now now in Melanury and Marion, 99 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 3: we say hats off to them. We're really really supportive 100 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 3: that they'd been fighting and listening to a community to 101 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 3: get a proper program. So that's why we are putting 102 00:05:58,240 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 3: for it again. 103 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,599 Speaker 1: Finally, like I would imagine Cyril that what you want 104 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: as a counselor is you want local Aboriginal people to 105 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: have that work and to be paid for that work. 106 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 2: Yes, I definitely want to have this kind of work. 107 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:17,039 Speaker 2: Is because we understand what people need in the community 108 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 2: and they have gave a lot of trust on us 109 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 2: as a counselors and local authority and council workers. It's 110 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 2: unoriginal council workers. And from my perspective, I really love 111 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:37,799 Speaker 2: this project and I really want to have my people 112 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 2: in it. So it's really important. You know, when you 113 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 2: have a lot of councilors that are elderly and a 114 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 2: lot of local authority that are emerging and also leaders 115 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 2: for the communities, it is best to have that kind 116 00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 2: of balance for the community and for the people across 117 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 2: note is anam Land and for those children as well, QUI, because. 118 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: You want opportunities absolutely. 119 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 2: And for example, people when kids are graduating at school, 120 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 2: they don't usually go to outpass CDP. They just wander 121 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 2: off and do nothing for example. And that's why we 122 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 2: need personally, as myself, your war from that community. We 123 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 2: want this program for the your own community to actually 124 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 2: get a career and a pathway for their future. 125 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: You want to you want that work, you want to 126 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: be able to do it, you want the opportunity when 127 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: you finish school. 128 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 2: Absolutely, they want a proper job because we don't want 129 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 2: to spend so much money in expensive groceries that has 130 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 2: been selled you know, for your community then because some 131 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 2: of us we leave in a centillent money and peanut 132 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 2: money and we cannot afford those kinds of groceries. 133 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: And you want your own you want your own money, 134 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: you want to work, you want your own money. I 135 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: think that's absolutely fair enough. 136 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 2: We want to want we want to build taxes for 137 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 2: the government where we want to tick their boxes. That's 138 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 2: what they want. Yes, so this is that's so what needs. 139 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 1: To change here? I mean this is like I know 140 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: that sometimes when you talk about you know, federal programs 141 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: that you know that that certainly things can happen and 142 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: sometimes councils or sometimes you know, different organizations might fall 143 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: through the gap in some way. But you know, what 144 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: do you think needs to change here so that you 145 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: can ensure that you know that local Aboriginal people are 146 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: getting these jobs and winning these jobs through the council, 147 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: through Eastannham Regional Council. 148 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 3: Katie. I think that's a great question and what we 149 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 3: really feel in councils and the other two councilors Very Gotham, 150 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,680 Speaker 3: Big Daily particularly affected by all this is we need 151 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:50,199 Speaker 3: the definition and what an average on community control organization 152 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 3: is to be broadened. We fully recognize one hundred percent 153 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 3: the average and corporations and businesses and respect and work 154 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 3: with them, like Syriah was saying, a partner and every day, 155 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,199 Speaker 3: but we're being excluded did so at the end of 156 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 3: the day because they're ahead of us in the queue 157 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 3: and that's why it's fairly rarely no councils have been selected. 158 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 3: So that definition needs to be open because Aboriginal people 159 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 3: in this in effect really are not being listened to. 160 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 3: This average organizations of big proper elected local governments some 161 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 3: being listened to, and then they would see everything that 162 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 3: we've got right in addition everything they're the key points 163 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 3: about staff and the relationships and communities and we're not 164 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,679 Speaker 3: fly and flay out. We're not based in Queensland, we're 165 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 3: not based in Darwin. Every one of our from age 166 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 3: here children's services and we'll be doing the same. We're here, 167 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 3: we'd have coordinators and managers living in community and we 168 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 3: have the houses for that. We have the training facilities 169 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 3: for inside and outside outdoor training. But that would that 170 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 3: could then be seen and if you look at that 171 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 3: in the application equally, we I believe very firmly we 172 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 3: would win, particularly because in our region and the other regions, 173 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 3: those organizations rely on our council's infrastructure that has been 174 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 3: there for decades for the Milan gim Me Council, Galouinku 175 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 3: ser Community Ramming, guinning and those, those facilities are there 176 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 3: and at the moment these new applicants are coming in. 177 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 3: One is an ongoing provider, but the leasers are going 178 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 3: to run out soon, and council as saying, hey, look, 179 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 3: we really think it'd be best. We'll just take care 180 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 3: of training ourselves, thanks very much, and we'll use that 181 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 3: for you know, Cyril has been saying, hey and counselor 182 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 3: love youth justice, youth engagement facilities places where we don't 183 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 3: get chuck kids in a Dondale enbronment enbronment. But we 184 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:32,959 Speaker 3: in Community Syria talk to me about that three years 185 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 3: ago that we would repurpose those if we had to, 186 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 3: because we know there's such a need there, and we 187 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 3: keep getting no from both levels governed on that about 188 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 3: we don't have the money for facilities. So so but 189 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 3: we'd rather focus on this because if we could get 190 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 3: the race program and work with all the homelands and 191 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 3: all the other organizations, we could actually have programs for 192 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 3: youth justice and engagement. 193 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: Well. But also you can have opportunities for people out 194 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 1: on communities. So maybe they don't engage. 195 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,080 Speaker 3: So they're like Cyril's saying, sure, people want to work, 196 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 3: they want to make their own living. Yeah, I don't 197 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 3: want to be dependent on it. 198 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 2: And also there's a lot of Aboriginals living in rural 199 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,439 Speaker 2: not part of the rural community, away from rural community. 200 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 2: So and they also wanted that kind of project for 201 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,319 Speaker 2: them to also run in the outstations community. Yeah, for them, 202 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 2: for the road safety, for the solar system, for the powers, 203 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 2: that is what they need. Then it's something that has 204 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 2: to be built. And yeah, it's it's really complicated when 205 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 2: you're down in grassroots and you can't imagine how complex 206 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 2: it is. 207 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 1: But you guys want to do that work. You want 208 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: to get stuck into it. So I mean we're too 209 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: next have you. I'm assuming that you've met with with 210 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 1: MELANDERI McCarthy, the Minister for Indigenous Australians at some point, 211 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: but I'm guessing you're wanting to catch up with her 212 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: or Marion stream Dure again. 213 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 3: Well, look, I bumped in a Marian and it was 214 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:01,319 Speaker 3: great catch up with us. She's a good friend of 215 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 3: our counselor and Melandary too. We totally respect, as I 216 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 3: said before, but we are seeking a meeting late last 217 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 3: week and we're seeking it actually tomorrow as well, you know, 218 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 3: because the Minister and Malandary couldn't do it together. Sorry 219 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 3: and Marion last week. But we've got to all the 220 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 3: councilors coming up again like they did last week, the 221 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 3: three councilors, Victorily Repert Golf and ourselves. They're flying out 222 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 3: the rest of today and our other delegation coming in 223 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 3: with Cyril joined Cyril. But that's the meeting we're seeking 224 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 3: and we understand. Yeah, we just want that to happen, 225 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 3: even if you eat Nissa dialing. I think she might 226 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 3: be in Canberra or somewhere, but you know, on teams 227 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 3: we can do that. We can do that, and Marion, 228 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 3: we understands in town, which is great, and to meet 229 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 3: together and to be able to hear each other on this. 230 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 3: We don't want to be in trenches on this, that's all. 231 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 3: We want to work together and just see a way 232 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:52,719 Speaker 3: forward on this because it's so historically important after all 233 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 3: these years. And finally, seriously, it's about twelve odd years 234 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 3: since we've had a decent proper CDP and it's a 235 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 3: great opportunity and we really just want to work together 236 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 3: on how to make that happen. 237 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: Well, look, I really appreciate you both coming into Darwin 238 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 1: and having a chat with me this morning.
