1998-2009
In 1998 the Wagyl Kaip Native Title claim was lodged. This was based on the 1996 Southern Noongar claim but with more ancestral families added.
In September 2006, the successful Single Noongar Claim handed down by High Court Judge Justice Wilcox, recognised that native title has not been extinguished across Noongar country.
In 2009 management of the Albany Fish Traps was handed over to a group representing the site’s traditional owners.
