The Anangu people are regarded as the traditional owners of Uluru, previously known as Ayers Rock. The "ownership" of Uluru was returned to the Anangu in 1985, along with KataTjuta, formerly The Olgas. The National Park is now co-managed by a board made up of Anangu and Piranpa members, with their roles and responsibilities set out in both the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) and the Aboriginal Land Rights Act (NT) 1976.
