It has been 12 years since Eddie Mabo and the people of Murray Island were granted native title over their land. This week their neighbours on Erub, or Darnley Island, have the same proud feeling.

After years of negotiations and legal action it appears an agreement over native title on five islands in the Torres Strait, in far north Queensland, has been finalised.
