The Tasmanian Aboriginal Centre (TAC) says it will not offer any more words in the Tasmanian Aboriginal language palawa kani for dual naming purposes.
This week, Tasmania s Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water and Environment (DPIPWE) announced that new Aboriginal and dual names had been approved for 15 places in the state.
But Campaign Manager with the TAC Nala Mansell said none of the newly approved names are palawa kani.
“Over the years we’ve thought it was important to share some of our language words with the general public, which is why we participated in the dual naming process, Ms Mansell told SBS News.
