Registrations
Register- To check in with the clerk of court before a judicial proceeding Record- Information that is inscribed on a tangible medium or that, having been stored in an electronic or other medium, is retrievable in perceivable form.

Why do Yidindji Tribal people have to be Australians?

As stated by other citizens discussing sovereignty, why would Yidindji Tribal people have to register the birth of their children to the Queensland or Australia? Can Yidindji make its own record of birth?

They would then be Yidindji

Yidindji Records
Would Yidindji need to register something or would they merely need to record it on Yidindji books. Could Yidindji then issue things such as title deeds?

Licences
Licence- A permission, usually revocable, to commit some act that would otherwise be unlawful, a licence is an authority to do a particular act, or series of acts, upon anothers land, without possessing any estate therein

Whos land is it? If it is Yidindji tribal lands would tribal people need a licence to do any act?

Driving or travelling

Did Yidindji tribal people ever have a licence to travel before? Whose jurisdiction does this person come under?

So whose land would they be travelling over?

If it is Yidindji lands (real property) then Yidindji tribal people would not be doing anything unlawful.
Because citizens of the State or Australia are on someone elses land (estate) then the citizens of the State or Australia would require a licence.

Commonwealth of Australia 0000805157

What about other licences

There are many others such as fishing, recreational wildlife, logging etc just to name a few. It is all because the citizen of the State or Australia is on someone elses land.

Authority to do something
Would it not only need to be an authority to do something. Yidindji need to be responsible to ensure that the Yidindji tribal people are capable to do something such as driving etc because of the inherent hazards associated with such activities. This might include symbols on the reverse of the Yidindji ID card

Cars and travelling

Can Yidindji tribal people be deprived of using cars or travelling?

No even their rules say so

International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights Article 15 The States Parties to the present Covenant recognize the right of everyone: (b) To enjoy the benefits of scientific progress and its applications;

Firearms

Yidindji passports
Could Yidindji issue a passport of its own? Yes What would be required? Do sovereigns require a passport? No

Land and Rates

If the Yidindji tribal people have not sold or made treaties for their lands then they must still have dominion over that land.

Was Yidindji here before the local Councils?

Can a local Council produce the signed contract between Yidindji tribal people and Council allowing the Council to charge rates on the land? Should Yidindji people charge the local Councils a rate fee?

Land and Rates

Is this the land? By holding this instrument are you agreeing to the jurisdiction of the local Council?

Certificate of Titles words definitions

Did Yidindji ever charge rates on their lands? Are the rates the rent fee for allowing the citizen of Queensland or Australia to reside on Yidindji tribal lands? (similar to a licence fee)

What about the Australians (black or white) that have purchased what they thought were pieces of land, but are in reality only pieces of paper? What would happen to them? What would happen to the banks if they have lent money on these pieces of paper?

Health
Did Yidindji tribal people have tribal remedies for diseases etc? How were the remedies applied? Does anyone remember these remedies? What about modern day health measures? How does a Yidindji tribal man get remedy from the modern day health system?

What Other Structures are on Yidindji Lands

Electricity generation and supply equipment. Airports Police Stations, Court Houses Dams Roads Railway Navy Base Farms To just name a few

Example of negotiations
How could you get health services if you cannot use the money of the State? If the hospital is on Yidindji tribal lands, then Yidindji can do a deal with the Hospital. The hospital could stay there and keep operating the way it has for years but as part of that deal Yidindji tribal people get the best of health for free as part payment for what has happened over the last 150 years

Electricity
What about electricity, how do Yidindji tribal people get electricity if they cannot use money of the system? There is various generation and distribution equipment on Yidindji tribal lands without consent - but as part of the negotiations Ergon Energy could stay and supply electricity to Yidindji tribal people for free as part payment for what has happened over the past 150 years.

What else?
Telephone Airport Railways Dams Buildings Vehicles

If the State cannot prove that it got lawful possession of the lands then the lands most certainly were stolen or at the least obtained unlawfully. Negotiations are required with the State to allow the Yidindji tribal people to have dominion of their lands and allow the State to exist on Yidindji lands.

Does Yidindji have the will to:

Take charge of its tribe and people. Take responsibility for its tribe and people. Take new steps forward to support its tribal people in this battle. Be committed to each other without asking What's in it for me. Create all its own institutions. E.g. Council of elders, court, education, policing etc like a real government Be honourable and care for each other.
