Description

Series 23 contains working records about Diane Elizabeth Barwick's historical report on the Framlingham land claim. This report was commissioned by the Victorian government in 1979. The initial Framlingham land claim was resolved in 1970. Diane Barwick's report appears to have related to a land claim by the Framlingham Aboriginal Trust to a regional park in the Framlingham area.

Diane Barwick submitted her historical report in 1981 to the then Minister for Conservation, W. A. Borthwick, via the Land Conservation Council of the State Government of Victoria. Her report was entitled 'An Assessment of the Cultural and Historical Significance to the Present Aboriginal Community of the Land Reserved at Framlingham in 1861'.

Framlingham Reserve is located near Warrnambool in the western district of Victoria. Under the Aboriginal Lands Act of 1970, 586 acres at Framlingham Reserve were returned to Aboriginal ownership. This case was the first Aboriginal land rights victory in Australia.
