Considering an aboriginal community will be by itself in an area larger then Wales except for maybe a local mine and a farm at max, the ban is easily enforceable... the remoteness is part of the problem, lack of police, opportunities etc

When working at the mines there is a ban on selling alcohol to the aborigines and also petrol as a lot of them sniff it and spray paints and toluene and other solvents. Its not a pretty thing to see a kid whose mouth and nose is chromed from the spray paint they sniff.

So removing alcohol is only part of the solution, the root causes need to be addressed too.

Now the biggest issue is that this may seem to hark back to the lost children generation and some of the overly extreme measures taken.

BTW aborigine is one step further then native, it means that they are the original or earliest inhabitants of a land.

On the other hand Maori's are natives as they wiped out the prior inhabitants.
