Influence how we present heritage significance assessment in NSW.

Heritage NSW works with the NSW community and heritage custodians to celebrate, commemorate, conserve, use and protect our heritage for the benefit of current and future generations. A key component of our work is assessing heritage significance.

We are reviewing the ‘Assessing Heritage Significance’ 2001 guidelines to ensure that we capture contemporary, best practice approaches to assessing significance and present the process in an easy to understand format for everyone who may find themselves assessing the values associated with heritage places.

These guidelines are used every day by a range of different people, businesses, organisations and courts to understand the need for heritage protection and/or future management of a potential heritage item.

Have Your Say

This consultation provides a great opportunity to help influence the assessment of heritage significance guidelines.

This consultation is for Heritage NSW (NSW Department of Planning and Environment).

Have your say consultations are run by the NSW Department of Customer Service (McKell Building, 2-4 Rawson Pl, Haymarket NSW 2000).

We are interested in hearing from the community and will use the information we collect from you to help develop the programs and services that NSW Government provides.

We are collecting only minimal personal information from you. We may collect basic information like your name and contact details, if you choose to provide them. You may provide some personal information in response to questions that we ask you. For example, we may ask you about your experiences or opinions about a particular topic.

Having your say is voluntary and you are not legally required to provide any personal information to us. For some consultations, though, you will not be able to have your say unless you agree to include your personal information.

If you do provide personal information to us, you have a right to access it, and can ask us to correct it if it is wrong.

We may share personal information you provide with other parts of the Department of Customer Service (for example, with our Data Analytics Centre) so that we can conduct analysis across all consultations and refine our engagement methodology.

Where we conduct a consultation on behalf of a partner agency, we would usually share the information that we collect with that agency. Partner agencies for each consultation are listed on the webpage for that consultation.

For privacy information about your use of the NSW Government website generally, please see the NSW Government’s website privacy statement.
