Integrity                      This is a measure of the wholeness and intactness of the place and its attributes. Examining the conditions of integrity requires assessing the extent to which the place:
                                     * includes all attributes and elements necessary to express its value;
                                     * is of adequate size to ensure the complete representation of the features and processes that convey the place's significance; and
                                     * suffers from adverse effects of development and/or neglect.
 Policy (Conservation Policy)   A statement or suite of statements framed to guide the ongoing use, care and management of the place and to retain, and if possible reinforce, its cultural significance. Once adopted or endorsed, they should be implemented or acted upon.

      Introduction

      1.1   Background

   The AWM is a national shrine, a museum and an archive located in the northern Canberra suburb of Campbell in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). It is managed by the Memorial and is a major research centre and tourist attraction, now consistently attracting more than one million visitors per year.1

   These functions of the AWM are supported by the AWM Mitchell Precinct, which is also managed by the Memorial. The AWM Mitchell Precinct, consisting of Treloar A (also known as Annex A), Treloar B, Treloar C, Treloar D (the Old Post Office), Treloar E and Treloar F (currently under lease), provides additional storage and conservation facilities for the AWM collection in the suburb of Mitchell, ACT.

   The values of the AWM are recognised through its inclusion in the National Heritage List (NHL) and the Commonwealth Heritage List (CHL) (refer to Appendix E and F for the official citations). The EPBC Act requires that a HMP be prepared for National and Commonwealth Heritage places to conserve, present and transmit their heritage values.

   This HMP has been prepared by GML Heritage Pty Ltd (GML) in line with the requirements of the EPBC Act and its Regulations. A compliance table showing how this HMP meets the requirements of the EPBC Act and its Regulations is included at Appendix C. Additional text has been provided by the Memorial, in particular on the Australian War Memorial Development Project 2019–2028, provided 27 November 2021, at Sections 2.5, 5 and 6.
