Abstract
In the period of Indigenous self-determination, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander representatives have moved between the public service and Indigenous organisations. In this chapter, I will draw on normative political theory to argue that such movements have contributed to self determination in a way that was anticipated by a neglected source of advice on Indigenous administration and representation: the 197476 Royal Commission on Australian Government Administration (the Royal Commission), chaired by H. C. Coombs.
