relevant and vital. Directly or indirectly, all the policies in this plan aim to realise this vision. The provisions of this plan are also based upon a recognition of a broad range of uses and social value linked to these uses.

  The core principles developed for this plan are intended to build upon the various conservation initiatives established by previous conservation management plans for the place and also to meet the management principles and management plan requirements for Commonwealth and National Heritage listed places.

  The management policies, strategies and objectives contained in this plan are based on these principles:

      * Integrity of the place – recognition that the integrity of the heritage values and their attributes are managed through appropriate use, maintenance and change

      * Conservation principles – acknowledgement that the Burra Charter guides the management of the heritage values of the place; in particular, the aspiration of nil decline in condition of heritage values

      * Complexity of heritage values – recognition that a key consideration in management decision making should be the complexity of the heritage values and attributes

      * Limits of acceptable change – acknowledgement that all actions and uses of the place result in some degree of impact and identify the need to manage physical and social impact within thresholds that minimise change/deterioration

      * Community involvement – recognition that the public has a right to participate in the decision-making processes concerning the place (this principle acknowledges the connections between individuals, families, communities and organisations to the place and events that occurred during the life of Parliament in the place)

      * Learning – recognition that the role of learning may extend beyond enhancing people's understanding and appreciation of the values of the place to engendering a sense of personal responsibility for their protection

      * Interpretation – recognition of the necessity to interpret heritage values of the place for their enhancement and longevity

      * Research – acceptance of the key role of research in identifying and understanding the heritage values and attributes of the place

      * Adaptive management – acceptance that the Heritage Management Plan policies should be adjusted and refined based on the results of research, monitoring and performance evaluation outcomes

      * Transparency and accountability – recognition that the decision-making processes, monitoring
    and lessees and other authorities operating in Old Parliament House should be open to public scrutiny and accountability.
