The First Nations Bailai, Gurang, Gooreng Gooreng, Taribelang Bunda People Aboriginal Corporation RNTBC holds native title in trust for the Bailai, Gurang, Gooreng Gooreng, Taribelang Bunda People. 

Between 1997 and 1999, five separate applications were made, seeking determinations of the area comprising the cities of Bundaberg and Gladstone and surrounding districts. Claims were made on behalf of the Bailai, Gurang, Gooreng Gooreng and Taibelang Bunda Peoples. On 17 August 2001, the Federal Court of Australia made orders combining the five separate applications. On 28 November 2017, Dowsett J made orders that native title exists over an area which stretches from the Burnett River watershed in the south to the lower Fitzroy River in the north, and from the high-water mark on the adjacent coastline in the east to the foothills of the Great Dividing Range in the west. In that case, Dowsett J recognised the Bailai, Gurang, Gooreng Gooreng, Taribelang Bunda People’s non-exclusive native title rights in the determination area.
