Summary

As per the latest legal notices received on December 12, 2025, the State of Victoria and other Treaty authorities have formalized their involvement by entering specific Traditional Owner Groups, including the Wotjobaluk, Jaadwa, Jadawadjali, Wergaia, and Jupagulk peoples, onto the Negotiations Database under clause 21.4b. Concurrently, on May 20, 2025, various Indigenous groups such as Taungurung and Wurrung Clans and Woi-wurrung Aboriginal Corporations submitted their intentions to form Delegations to the Negotiations Register. This process, governed by the Treaty Negotiation Framework, is advancing through stages ranging from formalizing specific treaty engagements to establishing broader diplomatic delegations. The authorities are actively compiling data into the database, which serves as the central record for managing these complex treaty negotiations across the country. These entries are crucial for ensuring that all Traditional Owners are clearly identified and recognized within the framework for Statewide Treaty Negotiations, facilitating future coordination and agreement-making between the Commonwealth and the states.
