Historical Land Tenure Search

Tenure searches are most relevant in determining whether native title extinguishment has taken place for your Future Act Area.  Where the Extinguishment could have been caused by a Prior Extinguishing Tenure Grant, a Historical Land Tenure Search may be needed to help you identify any Prior Extinguishing Tenure Grants back through time.

Historical Land Use Search

The Path through Native Title Assessment also requires you to assess whether there has been Extinguishment of native title on Public Work grounds. Where the Extinguishment could have been caused by a historical Public Work which no longer exists, a Historical Land Use Search may be needed.
