Heritage management

Under the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 (AHA) the Heritage & Culture branch of the Department of Indigenous Affairs works with Aboriginal people to protect and manage places of significance. The branch provides advice to the public and private sectors and the community about Aboriginal heritage management and maintains a Register of Aboriginal sites.

As part of the State’s project approval system, the branch works with developers to ensure that Aboriginal heritage and engagement with Aboriginal people is built into development planning process. The Aboriginal Cultural Material Committee (ACMC) provides advice to the Minister for Indigenous Affairs on the management of sites in significance of the development process.
