the Portal Building sites, consistent with the other plantations along the Parade.

           Commentary:  All of the plantations along Anzac Parade should be managed in a consistent manner.  For example, when tree replacement for the major part of the Parade is undertaken, this should also include the trees in front of the Portal Building sites.

           32.4 The NCA will ensure implementation of the landscape screening measures for developments east of the Parade on Constitution Avenue, as indicated in the National Capital Plan.

           32.5 The NCA should seek to preserve the symmetrical portal effect of the former Anzac Park East and current Anzac Park West buildings.

Policy 33 Protection of views to and from the Parade
       The significant views to and from the Parade will be protected.  The significant views include:
            * to and from the Australian War Memorial;
            * to the surrounding hills, especially Mount Ainslie;
            * to the Parliamentary Zone;  and
            * from Mount Ainslie and Parliament House.

       Commentary:  The NCA has planning responsibility for all of the important viewpoints into Anzac Parade, with maintenance of these viewpoints being the responsibility of the ACT Government or the Commonwealth Department of Parliamentary Services.

Notes

The uses listed in this table are provided to supplement the formal land use definitions provided in the National Capital Plan.

       Commentary:  It should be noted commemorative activities may change over time in response to the perceptions, needs and aspirations of associated individuals, groups and communities.  This change should be accommodated.

       Implementation Strategies

           34.1 The NCA should continue to support commemorative activities in Anzac Parade.

           34.2 The NCA should foster discussions about financial and other support for commemorative activities, where needed.

           Commentary:  Such discussions should include the Australian War Memorial and the associated communities.

           34.3 The NCA will continue to ensure, as far as possible, that mechanisms are in place to coordinate uses in the case of major events.

Policy 35 New and continuing uses compatible with significance
       Any continuing use or new use proposed for the Parade will be compatible with the significance of the place, and should ideally be complimentary to the primary uses.

Policy 36 Access
