In this seminar, Jon critically reflects on the content and quality of his evidence in light of recently published observations by Mansfield J and a request from AIATSIS’s Native Title Research Unit to engage with his observations.
In particular, Jon is interested to explore how non-market economic values and lost opportunities might be compensated; and to what extent Timber Creek as a test case was the first, rather than last, legal say on the matter of compensation.
