Secrecy, Secrecy: Secrecy, Proof & Confidentiality of Aboriginal Customary Laws in the Legal System

Discusses issues of secrecy, proof and confidentiality that surround Aboriginal Customary Law. For example - when a matter comes before a court, the court can only act on information that is communicated to it and then tested by both parties. Thus there will be circumstances in which Aboriginal people need to choose whether to disclose secret material to the courts as a price paid for seeking the benefit or protection of the general law.
