Crown land is land held by the NSW Government on behalf of the public. Find out about the different types of Crown land.
Find out about Aboriginal land rights and native title. These concepts are recognised in the law and confer rights that are protected.
Members of the public can volunteer to participate in the management of Crown land as an appointed board member of a statutory land manager.
We look after infrastructure as well as natural assets. We aim to protect Crown land for the community of NSW and maintain it for future generations.
Crown land plays a central role in a changing and thriving NSW, by helping to create and support prosperous and resilient communities.
We have developed a range of rules, policies and guidelines to guide our decisions and actions when applying legislation.
Crown land can be used or occupied for specific purposes. You need a licence or lease and must apply for permission.
