- Wik Peoples v The State of Queensland (commonly known as the Wik decision) is a decision of the High Court of Australia delivered on 23 December 1996 on whether statutory leases extinguish native title rights. The court found that the statutory pastoral leases under consideration by the court did not bestow rights of exclusive possession on the leaseholder. As a result, native title rights could co-exist depending on the terms and nature of the particular pastoral lease. Where there was a conflict of rights, the rights under the pastoral lease would extinguish the remaining native title rights. The decision provoked a significant debate in Australian politics. It led to intense discussions on the validity of land holdings in Australia. Some political leaders criticised the court for being out of touch and for introducing uncertainty into Australian life. The Howard Government formulated a “10 point plan” to bring certainty to land ownership in Australia. This plan led to the longest debate in the Australian Senate’s history. (en)
- Wik Peoples v State Of Queensland and Others was een rechtszaak in Australië waarmee de Wik het concept van de native title wisten op te rekken. De uitspraak van de rechtbank was van betekenis voor alle Aboriginalvolkeren in Australië. De zaak ligt in het verlengde van het Mabo-vonnis van 1992. (nl)
