Land Holding Act leases guide
How we grant leases for approved applications
Finding your lease
Most lease entitlements have now been resolved and the leases granted. Check the published trust area notices to see the status of the entitlement.
If the lease entitlement notice shows ‘entitlement satisfied’, this means the lease has been granted.
If you want to get a copy of the lease document or a current title search, contact Titles Queensland to purchase a copy. For any other inquiries, contact the Indigenous Land Transfers and Leasing team on 13 74 68.
If you can’t find your lease on the lease entitlement notices, check with the trustee to see whether your application was deemed invalid because it wasn’t processed properly.
Role of the land court
There are a number of decisions that you can appeal to the Land Court if you are unhappy with the outcome. These include decisions related to applications you made about a lease entitlement notice.
We may also apply to the Land Court for a decision to resolve obstacles to the grant of a lease if the affected parties are unable to reach agreement.
Similarly, in the case of a granted lease, if boundaries need to be relocated, we can apply to the Land Court for a decision.
For more information and the necessary forms visit the Land Court website.
