I have a question about prospecting on Unreserved Crown Land that is held under just a General licence.
The land in question has a dirty great 'Keep Out' sign on it. It's a parcel of unreserved crown that someone
has seen fit to take a general licence on and now refuses to allow access to an area that used to be open.
Yet the following is from the Dept of Many Name Changes (DSE) own fact sheet on managing Crown Land:
If I hold a Crown land licence, do I have the right to exclude others from the licence area?
No. A licence does not convey any exclusive rights to the licensee.
So, can I enter and tell any that try to stop me to 'Bugger off'? Politely of course. And while armed with a
copy of this fact sheet.
