2000      The Conservation Management Plan (CMP) 2000 is completed; it is a significant evolution from the two preceding plans. For the first time conservation planning at Old Parliament House is developed as an integral management tool with the subsequent plan becoming the primary reference document for decision-making. The plan outlines 46 specific policies, covering issues such as training, building works, use of the place, interpretation and movable heritage.
          The CMP 2000 clearly states the significance of the place being founded in the building's full life as the home of federal Parliament and emphasises that significance must guide and inform all decision-making. The internal standard definitions for Old Parliament House consider the term 'original' to mean any heritage fabric, fitting or furnishing relating to the period 1923 to 1988.
2000–06   A number of detailed heritage analyses on specific areas of the building are completed to augment the CMP 2000 (see Appendix K). These studies assist in the overall knowledge and understanding of the heritage values of the place and provide valuable guidance during conservation and capital works projects which included the North Wing roof refurbishment, the Members Private Dining Room refurbishment, and conservation work completed on the House of Representatives Press Offices.
