Historic Cultural Heritage Amendment Bill 2024
The primary aim of this Bill is to afford greater protection to historic heritage places, address anomalies and improve administrative processes.
Most of the amendments have arisen from legal advice and were not foreseen as part of the last suite of amendments that came into effect in 2019.
The Amendment Bill is anticipated to be tabled in the Parliament in mid 2024.
Heritage Tasmania has prepared a factsheet which provides a plain English description of the proposed changes to the legislation.
