Traditional owners on the remote Tiwi Islands have given evidence in a special on-country, beachside federal court hearing, in a bid to stop a multi-billion dollar Santos gas project in waters off Darwin from going ahead.
Munupi clan elders launched federal court action in June, claiming they weren't properly consulted about plans by the oil and gas giant to develop the $4.7 billion Barossa gas field, located 150 kilometres north of the islands.
