Abstract
The Aboriginal Movement for Outback Survival (Mt Margaret Mission) By-laws are a set of regulations designed to manage community conduct, land usage, and safety within the Mt Margaret Mission area in Western Australia. They outline rules for entering and remaining on community land, emphasizing the need for Council permission. Behavior deemed disruptive or offensive, including wilful damage or the disturbance of meetings, is prohibited, as are actions involving alcohol and substances that could harm individuals or the community. There are detailed provisions concerning driving conduct on community land, with rules for licensing, care, and control of community-owned vehicles. Law enforcement officers are empowered to handle breaches of the by-laws, including searching vehicles and seizing prohibited items. Penalties for violations include fines, compensation, and the forfeiture of seized property, with allowances made for community customs as a defense.
