We want to hear from State Heritage Register owners and managers to understand how standard exemptions are being used and if improvements are needed.
Under the standard exemptions, certain activities or works may be exempt from a Heritage Act permit if it complies with the relevant standards. The standard exemptions currently include a range of activities or work that have little to no impact on the item's heritage significance and support its ongoing management such as maintenance, painting or installing a fire alarm.
Heritage NSW wants to know if the current standard exemptions and the associated standards are working well and are helping you to manage your item.
Tell us what you think
Have your say by completing a survey by Friday 28 March 2025.
We may contact you to better understand your feedback. If you are willing to do this, you can let us know in the survey.
Your feedback will help Heritage NSW to plan for any future improvements needed on standard exemptions.
