342  Simplified outline of this Division
  The following is a simplified outline of this Division:

      Commonwealth reserves can be declared over areas of land or sea:
             (a) that the Commonwealth owns or leases; or
             (b) that are in a Commonwealth marine area; or
             (c) outside Australia that the Commonwealth has international obligations to protect.
      A Proclamation must assign the reserve to a particular category, that affects how the reserve is managed and used.
      Some activities can be undertaken in a reserve only if a management plan provides for them. Commonwealth agencies must comply with a management plan. Regulations can be made to control a wide range of activities in reserves.
      The Minister may approve a management plan prepared by the Director and any Board for a reserve.
      In agreement with indigenous people, the Minister can set up a Board for a reserve including land leased from indigenous people.
