Native Title Sample Clauses
The Native Title clause defines how the parties will address issues related to Indigenous land rights that may affect the agreement. It typically outlines the responsibilities of each party in complying with relevant Native Title laws, such as consulting with Indigenous groups or obtaining necessary consents before commencing activities on affected land. This clause ensures that the agreement does not infringe upon existing Native Title rights and helps prevent legal disputes or project delays arising from unaddressed Indigenous land interests.
