     4.    Statutory Management Frameworks

     4.1.  Background

  The management framework for Old Parliament House and Curtilage is entirely exercised by the Commonwealth, with two parties administering the area: the National Capital Authority (NCA) and Old Parliament House as a Statutory Agency.

  The place sits in a broader Commonwealth Heritage listed area known as the Parliament House Vista, comprising some 260 hectares administered by the NCA, and is adjacent to other important places, buildings and landscapes.

  The place must be managed as a feature in the broader landscape, as well as an individual element with its own heritage values.
