Abstract

'This report presents key findings and recommendations based upon research conducted in 2011 by the Indigenous Legal Needs Project (ILNP) in the Northern Territory (NT). 2 The ILNP aims broadly and on a national level: • to identify and analyse the legal needs of Indigenous communities in non-criminal areas of law (including discrimination, housing and tenancy, child protection, employment, credit and debt, wills and estates, and consumer-related matters); and • to provide an understanding of how legal service delivery might work more effectively to address identified civil and family law needs of Indigenous communities.' - Executive summary,
