ALC 15 year Strategic Plan 10. Goal F: Moving to a Regional Authority 122 10.2 GROOTE EYLANDT AND BICKERTON ISLAND ENTERPRISES ABORIGINAL CORPORATION (GEBIE) In compliance with the ALRA the ALC established its business arm GEBIE to invest traditional owner royalties into business and sustainable economic return opportunities. While GEBIE businesses have grown rapidly under the influence of the RPA, the focus of GEBIE has been stretched away from the core realm of business into the arena of delivering social welfare programs at its own expense. There is an inherent tension in this arrangement for both directors and staff. What was expressly established as a business has moved to become an organisation that distributes ALC royalties, runs a substantial social-welfare program and is delivers mainstream government services. The following table attempts to provide some detail of perceived current overall tension that currently exist within the existing ALC/GEBIE roles and responsibilities utilising a SWOT analysis. It is followed with an overview of how royalties sourced from the GEMCO mine are distributed back to the Traditional Owners via various channels.
