How much should it cost to rent the rock? Source: The Advertiser

A SECRET government debate on how to return Uluru to traditional Aboriginal owners included a dispute about money for renting the site and the length of the lease.

Options put to Cabinet in 1985 included a 50-year lease and an annual "rent" of $150,000 for use of Uluru by national park authorities.

But Cabinet eventually decided to settle for a 99-year lease and $75,000 a year rent.

Documents, released today by the National Archives of Australia, say a proposal for $150,000 a year in rent, plus half the park's entrance fees to be paid to traditional owners, was "excessive".

The historic decision to hand back Uluru was a key moment in the recognition of Aboriginal land rights.

The event was not without controversy, with the Northern Territory Government campaigning against the return.
