    No. Water rights are already getting discounted in RFF unit price.

    "
    Indigenous Australians own just 0.2 per cent of surface water rights in Australia despite owning nearly 40 per cent of land through native title, according to Water Minister Tanya Plibersek.
    Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have told me that the current arrangements for water holding isn't always appropriate for First Nations, who have their own cultural and economic needs and aspirations," Ms Plibersek said in a statement.

    Environment and Water Minister Tanya Plibersek said this lack of water has robbed Indigenous people of economic opportunities, particularly in rural Australia, and disrupted cultural practices.She said the government will work with the Committee on Aboriginal Water Interests, the Coalition of Peaks, the Indigenous Land and Sea Corporation and other stakeholders to develop a model for First Nations to own, access and manage water.

    "It's important we get this right. It's a crucial step in reversing the legacy of Indigenous dispossession and under-representation in water ownership and decision-making."
