1. Facilitate consultation meetings with traditional owners;
2. Facilitate meetings between Parks Australia management and traditional owners; and
3. Provide a report to the Northern Land Council detailing findings, including recommended changes to joint management and relevant legislation governing Kakadu National Park.
