                                                                             This Heritage Strategy is in response to section 341ZA of the EPBC Act which obliges AMSA to prepare and maintain a heritage strategy, along with obliging AMSA to:

                                                                                  * Assist in identification, assessment and monitoring of places of heritage value in its care;
                                                                                  * Prepare and maintain a register of its places of heritage value;
                                                                                  * Protect the heritage value of places when they are sold or leased;
                                                                                  * Provide this heritage strategy, and any subsequent major updates, to the relevant minister.

                                                                             The strategy derives from the AMSA Corporate Plan and achievements are reported through the AMSA Annual Report.[29]
