heritage values or places as required by the EPBC Act, and any amendments to this Act.

       Implementation Strategies

           10.1 The NCA may provide a copy of this plan to the Department for consideration of possible amendments to the National Heritage listing (values and boundaries), to better align that listing with the plan.

       Policy 11 Relationship with associated groups and communities, and other stakeholders
       The NCA will seek to liaise with associated groups and communities, and other relevant stakeholders, including community and professional groups, on developments affecting the place, including on adjacent land.  It will seek to actively consult prior to decisions directly impacting on the significance of Anzac Parade or its component parts to associated groups and communities.

       Consultation and planning processes should be open/transparent, well-communicated, and able to be understood by the associated groups and communities.

       Commentary:  Refer to Strategy 8.1.

       Implementation Strategies

           11.1 The NCA will maintain a list of relevant stakeholders and the scope of their interests.

           Commentary:  The stakeholders listed in Section 8.3 are relevant stakeholders which will be included in the proposed list.

           11.2 Periodically or as developments are proposed, the NCA will seek to inform stakeholders of activities in a timely fashion and provide them with an opportunity to comment on developments.

           In particular, in the case of works or actions affecting specific memorials, including significant repairs and maintenance, care should be taken to consult associated stakeholders, and possibly by including temporary site signage to explain what is to happen and providing a contact for more information.

           Commentary:  Stakeholders might include the Canberra and broader community who value the Parade and its components (see the statement of significance at Section 7.1).  To some extent, consultation mechanisms under the NCA's works approval process or the EPBC Act may provide mechanisms for such consultation.  However, given public interest in and sensitivity about developments in or adjacent to the place, an earlier, more proactive and iterative mechanism would seem warranted.

           11.3 To the extent proposed interpretation relies on information from stakeholders, such stakeholders will be consulted about the interpretation at a draft stage.

           11.4 If Indigenous heritage values or cultural traditions are identified in the future in the place, then the NCA will develop appropriate policies and protocols to ensure Indigenous people participate in the management process for it.

           Commentary:  There are currently no Indigenous heritage values or cultural traditions identified in the National Heritage listing for the place.

           11.5 The NCA will undertake early and proactive consultation regarding the management and development of adjacent lands to protect the values of Anzac Parade, in particular including with the Australian War Memorial.
