At last, the new Rule Book has been approved by the Office of the Registrar of Indigenous Corporations (ORIC). It has been through a long and tedious process since July last year and has been worked on by both the current and previous GAC Boards.
It has taken many hours of hard work in the form of a special workshop by the Members in February 2009, as well as ongoing consultation and advice from GAC’s solicitor and was finally approved by the Members at the Special General Meeting held on Saturday, 23 May.
The draft was submitted to ORIC for approval shortly after and GAC received official approval on 2 June.
If anyone would like a copy of the new Rule Book, please contact the Member Services Unit.
Here you will find up-to-date news on our programs and schemes. We will post Frequently Asked Questions, (FAQ's) to make it easier for members to access our services. We encourage feedback from members so that this becomes an interactive forum where you can voice your ideas, concerns or even encouragement.

In 1996, the Nyiyaparli, Banyjima and Innawonga peoples negotiated and signed an historical Yandi Land Use Agreement with Hamersley Iron Pty Ltd. (now Pilbara Iron).
Gumala Aboriginal Corporation was created to represent the collective interests of the Traditional Owners in the negotiations with Hamersley Iron and to develop and sign the Yandi Agreement. “Gumala” is an Aboriginal word in the Bunjima Language meaning “all together”.
