Members of the Tasmanian Aboriginal community have established a camp on the lawns of Hobart's Parliament House, calling for a government commitment to progress Treaty in the state.

Entering its third day after dozens braved the Tasmania winter to sleep on the Parliament lawns, the protesters demand Premier Jeremy Rockliff legislate a Treaty process; saying they will not disband the protest camp until such a commitment is made.

The protest commenced earlier this week with Tasmanian Aboriginal Centre (TAC) campaign manager Nala Mansell calling for the premier to meet with Tuylupa Tunapri, an 11 member delegation formed under the banner of Treaty Lutruwita and facilitated with the backing of the TAC.

Ms Mansell called for Premier Rockliff to meet with the TAC-elected Treaty group to discuss further legislative action, citing a lack of movement in the Treaty space in Tasmania since the Pathway to Truth-Telling and Treaty report was handed down by Kate Warner and Tim McCormack in November, 2021.

"We demand a treaty," Ms Mansell told the crowd earlier this week.

"We are here on our land, and we will not move until the Premier comes out, speaks to the people, and agrees to legislate for a treaty.

"We will be setting up our tents, and will stay to demand a treaty from the Premier."

Michael Mansell, who sits on the Aboriginal Land Council of Tasmania (ALCT) and is a member of Tuylupa Tunapri, said the government has "shelved the idea" of Treaty and taken "no action" to progress a Treaty process since Ms Warner and Mr McCormack's report had been provided.

"I personally have met twice with the premier, I've met a number of times with the Minister for Aboriginal Affairs," Mr Mansell told The Mercury.

"And each time was told that the Government has a hand-picked advisory body, and would do nothing until they hear from the advisory body."

Mr Mansell said he provided Premier Rockliff with Tuylupa Tunapri's own draft Treaty bill in 2023 and was yet to receive a government response.

"The whole thing can turn around very quickly if the Premier honours the promise that made in 2021," Mr Mansell said.

"Or in the absence of the premier making that commitment, the parliament itself takes taking the lead given the makeup of this parliament is very different to the parliament before the last election."

The Tasmanian Government established an Aboriginal advisory group in 2022 to develop a pathway to Truth-telling and Treaty in the state. National Indigenous Times understands the advisory group - which has been seeking guidance from Victorian and South Australian Treaty delegations - has invited Tuylupa Tunapri to participate on multiple occasions.

An invitation has also been extended by Tasmania Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Roger Jaensch, with Tuylupa Tunapri so far declining offers from both the group and Mr Jaensch to participate.

A Tasmanian Government spokesperson said the government has always been willing to engage with Tasmanian Aboriginal people.

"The Premier and Aboriginal Affairs Minister have previously met with members of the TAC-nominated group, who were present on the Parliament lawns today, and have encouraged them to participate in the Advisory Group process," the spokesperson said earlier this week.

"The Aboriginal Advisory Group has also invited the TAC members to attend Advisory Group meetings, but to date they have declined to do so."

National Indigenous Times understands Premier Rockliff met with members of the Aboriginal rights protest on Thursday.

More to come.
