My first and most important debt is to the board and staff of Laynhapuy Homelands Association, past and present, for allowing me to undertake the governance study during what turned out to be a rather tumultuous period in the organisation’s long history. It has been a privilege to work with them, and I hope that I have contributed something positive in return. My especial thanks to Sally Wagg for her generous hospitality in giving me a home away from home on so many occasions. I thank Janet Hunt, Howard Morphy, Rebecca Morphy and two anonymous reviewers for their constructive comments on various drafts of this chapter. Any remaining errors of fact and interpretation are my responsibility.
