Heritage strategy

Amendments to the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Act 1999 (EPBC Act, introduced in January 2004) together with amendments to the Environment Protection & Biodiversity Conservation Regulations 2000 (the Regulations), introduced a new Commonwealth heritage management regime for properties under Commonwealth ownership or control.

Under the EPBC Act, Australia Post established a heritage strategy in 2006/07 which integrates the heritage conservation and management of owned properties within the overall property planning and management framework. This strategy addresses all aspects of heritage property management, including planning for future works, development, property divestment, staff training and the promotion of community awareness of Australia Post's heritage assets.

The Australia Post Heritage Strategy helps to establish priorities for funding and works approvals and assists with prioritising the preparation and completion of management plans for heritage properties.
