Abstract: In 1960s-1970s, the positive change of Australian policy towards aboriginals is closely related to the daily loosening of the “White Australia Policy”. In early 1970s, when Gough Whitlam held high the banner of reform and promoted the multi-cultural policy, Australian aboriginals met an unprecedented opportunity of changing their own fate. When the labor party regarded “autonomy” as the direction and aim of the reform of the policy towards aboriginals, the National Aboriginal Consultative Committee was established, which was the first step of the reform. The establishment of this organization to some extent reflects the fact that aboriginals as a whole hope to influence the policies of the government. However, due to the restricts of objective conditions, this organization, which has merely symbolic meaning rather than real influence, cannot play the expected role.
