People involved		Aboriginal Legal Rights Movement (ALRM) ALRM exists to get social justice and a legal service to Aboriginal people and their communities. ALRM is a non-profit organisation working to keep law and justice systems hones. It demands recognition of Aboriginal cultures and fights for economic and social status for dispossessed people.   Syd Sparrow, ALRM Director, chaired a meeting at which he told the story of the Movement's evolution from 1971 until the present time. Later his staff explained their work in support of Aboriginal people. It was interesting to hear that the Movement would not represent either party when Aboriginal people were in dispute. Like Land Councils, ALRM is a representative body acting for Aboriginal people in South Australia. Fred Tanner, Head of the Native Title Unit, told us how ALRM makes claims for Native Title or compensation and helps sort out disagreements between people making claims outside the Anangu Pitjatjantjara and Maralinga Tjarutja lands where title has already been acquired. Caroline Joske, solicitor, explained the difficulty where overlapping claims were made to land and the level of demand that has come from the Native Title legislation.   Division of State Aboriginal Affairs (DOSAA) DOSAA, now the Heritage and Aboriginal Affairs provides essential services (power, water and sewerage) to over 200 Aboriginal communities and acts as an advocate for Aboriginal people within government. Under the auspices of the Aboriginal Lands Trust, DOSAA has the mandate to act as 'caretaker' of trust land for Aboriginal people. At a meeting at DOSAA central office we heard from the Director, David Rathman, about the work of his department. We were given a presentation of it's conservation work at a number of community locations and in this way we were briefed for visits the following day to Raukkan and Camp Coorong.   South Australian Museum The delegation were given a tour of the South Australian Museum by it's Director, Dr Christopher Anderson. He took us into the vaults of the Museum where we were able to see some of what is regarded as the largest collection of Aboriginal cultural artefacts in Australia, not all of which is on public display. Chris explained how the Museum was working hard to involve communities in the identification, protection and restoration of this material, and how the Museum wants to ensure that Aboriginal people feel a sense of ownership for the collection. We heard how the Museum hopes to build a special Aboriginal collection display so that this material will be more freely accessible.   Reception at South Australian Museum After the tour of the museum we were welcomed at a reception hosted by Robert Champion de Crespigny, Chairman of the South Australian Museum. Delegates were able among others to meet with politicians (State Opposition Leader Mike Rann & Democrat Ian Gilfillan), lawyers (Elliot Johnston QC, Richard Bradshaw from Johnston Withers) and local Aboriginal leader, Garnet Wilson OAM.
