No substantial treaty has been entered into between the government of Australia and the Indigenous people of Australia.[1][2] Some prior treaties exist in pockets, such as Batman's Treaty, but these are not substantial government treaties, i.e. treaties between the Government of the day and the traditional custodians of the land.[further explanation needed]
