Government seeks feedback on Territory Place Names
1 June 2006
All Territorians have the opportunity to comment on the proposed changes to place names.
The Government has launched a six-week public consultation process into the naming of localities across the Northern Territory. Numerous localities have “unofficial” names, while others have no name at all.
As a result, different organisations may use different names for the same place. To resolve this issue, all suburbs, towns and localities in the Northern Territory that have not already been officially named will be registered under the Place Names Act.
Community Forums are being held in Alice Springs, Katherine and Litchfield and you have until July 14 to comment. View Media Release (pdf 78kb).
