In 1996 homeless Aboriginal people from Arnhem Land had been evicted from their camp at Lee Point near Darwin, Northern Territory, and moved to Fish Camp, on teh Kulaluk lease where there was no water of any other facilities. In December 1996 some of the campers returned to Lee Point and were issued with trespass notices. The campers then made a complaint to the NT Anti-Discrimination Commission, claiming that they had a traditional right to camp. Later, after the campers returned to Lee Point in May 1997, supporters established a protest camp in the nearby park in solidarity of their homeless.
