Indigenous test case guidelines
Indigenous test case funding is administered by the Indigenous Law and Justice Branch of the Commonwealth Attorney-General’s Department. Indigenous test case funding is a sub-program of the Branch’s Legal Aid for Indigenous Australians Program.
Applications for test case funding are considered having regard to the objectives of the Branch, the policy priorities of the Australian Government and the Branch’s Legal Aid for Indigenous Australians Program Guidelines.
These Indigenous Test Case Guidelines set out the criteria for obtaining funding, the procedure for applying for funding and the conditions upon which funding is granted.
These guidelines were updated in December 2007 and replace all previous guidelines.
