Note:

The statistics provided above may include a greater number of determinations than those provided under ’National Native Title Register (NNTR)’ due to the following:

the determination may not take effect until a certain condition is met, such as the registration of an ILUA or the nomination of a Prescribed Body Corporate (PBC)
the determination may be in the administrative process of being registered on the NNTR.
