a legislative obligation.  It is intended to help guide the conservation management of the area as a living and working document, especially with regard to changes that are or may be proposed, or which will inevitably arise.

The other part of the National Heritage place is the Australian War Memorial, and a heritage management plan has been prepared for that part (GML Heritage 2022).  The management plan for the Parade has been prepared to compliment the plan for the Memorial, and it strives to achieve comprehensive conservation management for the whole National Heritage place.

Anzac Parade is also a key part of the Parliament House Vista which is on the Commonwealth Heritage List.  The Commonwealth Heritage values of the Vista are provided at Appendix A.  A heritage management plan for the Vista has been prepared (Marshall and others 2010b), and it has been drawn-upon as appropriate in the development of this plan for Anzac Parade.

This heritage management plan focuses on the National Heritage values of Anzac Parade, and it does not consider other values, such as Commonwealth Heritage values.  To the extent other values exist, these are considered by the Parliament House Vista heritage management plan.

While most of Anzac Parade is the subject of this study, not all of it is included, as explained in Chapter 2.

A copy of the National Heritage List place record for the Australian War Memorial and the Memorial Parade, as well as the Commonwealth Heritage List place record for the Parliament House Vista, are reproduced at Appendix A.

A copy of the project brief is provided at Appendix B.

This heritage management plan is the same as a conservation management plan – the term more widely used in the heritage industry.

Key general definitions

Conservation                               In this report, the term conservation is generally used to mean, 'all the processes of looking after a place so as to retain its cultural significance' (Australia ICOMOS 2013, Article 1.4).  These processes include maintenance, preservation, restoration, reconstruction and adaptation.  This definition derives from the Burra Charter.

                                           In accordance with the EPBC Act 1999, the broad nature of cultural significance also has to be appreciated.  It includes not only the physical elements of a place (for example the architecture or landscape) but can also include intangible values such as historical associations, traditional use and community attachment.  Conservation has to take all of these values into account.  (See for example the National Heritage criteria at 10.01A of the EPBC Regulations 2003 (No. 1) and the requirements for management plans at 10.01C of the regulations.)

                                           One of the principles underpinning the Burra Charter is a recognition that heritage places change through time for a variety of reasons.  Good heritage
