The EDO supports a robust and far-reaching heritage framework. Whether an item is of environmental, cultural or Indigenous significance, matters of heritage are of great value to the ACT and its communities. In many ways the Heritage Act 2004 (ACT) achieves this, and although we are supportive of some of the changes proposed in the the Bill, we question others which have the potential to undermine the Heritage Act’s overarching objects.

EDO recognises the traditional owners and custodians of the land, seas and rivers of Australia. We pay our respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander elders past and present, and aspire to learn from traditional knowledge and customs so that, together, we can protect our environment and cultural heritage through law.
