3.5 Monitoring of Implementation

The implementation of the management plan and its effectiveness in conserving National and Commonwealth Heritage values will be managed and assessed by the Strategies Branch of the AAD.

3.6 Review of Management Plan

The management plan will be reviewed by the AAD at least once every five years. The review will:

1. Assess the effectiveness of the plan in protecting and conserving the National and Commonwealth Heritage values (including a condition assessment of the values).

2. Identify new or changed information from monitoring, community input and/or further research which may require changes to the management plan.

3. Identify any significant damage or threat to the Commonwealth or National Heritage values of the site through the analysis of conservation works team reports, visitor reports and the integrated monitoring and maintenance plan.
