NNTC PBC Regional Forum

Supported by the National Indigenous Australians Agency (NIAA) and Yamatji Marlpa Aboriginal Corporation (YMAC), the National Native Title Council (NNTC) is hosting a two-day workshop for Prescribed Bodies Corporate (PBCs). Directors from PBCs operating in YMAC’s representative regions – Pilbara, Gascoyne, Murchison, and Mid West – are invited.

NIAA will cover travel and accommodation costs for two Directors per PBC.

Other representatives are welcome to attend at their PBC’s (or their own) expense.

Designed specifically for PBC Directors, the two-day forum will be an opportunity for attendees to hear about work being carried out by NNTC and to identify and discuss issues common to the sector. Several sessions will be facilitated discussions on the potential future focuses for PBCs, examples of decision-making structures, and how collaboration and networking works across YMAC’s regions.

Representatives from Commonwealth Government agencies will be in attendance to provide a national overview of the support available to PBCs and answer questions about how PBCs operate. Other departments/organisations also set to join and present at the forum will be confirmed shortly.

Please register now to ensure your PBC’s participation. 

To confirm who from your PBC will attend, please have someone from the corporation contact YMAC Senior Business Support Officer Michelle Goodlet (P: 08 9965 6222; E: mgoodlet@ymac.org.au) to register.

Again, NIAA will cover the costs (at Australian Tax Office reasonable rates) for two people from each PBC to participate; others must have their costs covered by alternate means.

Also, as this is a development forum, sitting fees will not be paid.

For all other questions or queries, please contact NNTC by emailing jasmine.yarran@nntc.com.au.
