Up until the 1960's the State governments were solely'responsible' for the indigenous people within state boundaries. The Federal (national) government was 'responsible' - Australian Capital, Northern and Jervis Bay Territories.
The Indigenous Australians were actually regarded as part of the native fauna and flora which were and largely remain under the control of States.
All State governments had made own formal apologies when the National Apology was made by then Prime Minister Rudd in February 2008.
