| The National Trust of Australia (WA)
| The National Trust of Australia (WA) works to raise knowledge, awareness, understanding and commitment to Western Australia’s natural, Aboriginal and historic heritage. The Trust achieves this objective through the conservation and interpretation of heritage places it manages on behalf of the community and government of Western Australia, and through its education and learning programs.
The National Trust of Australia (W.A.) was established in Western Australia in 1959 by a group of concerned citizens who identified the need to promote heritage conservation. This group grew rapidly and included some of the most prominent citizens in the State. Some five years later an Act of Parliament was passed in the State Parliament which formally established the Trust as an independent community based organisation.
| In Australia each state and territory has a National Trust all of which are members of the Australian Council of National Trusts.
The National Trust is a registered charity.
The National Trust of Australia (W.A.) Act 1964-1970 can be found on the Australasian Legal Institute (Austlii) Database.

| National Trust Governance Framework
Legislation
| The National Trust of Australia (W.A.) was established in Western Australia in 1959. In 1964 an Act of Parliament was passed in the State Parliament which formally established the Trust as an independent community based organisation.
|
| Regulation
| Section 27 of the National Trust of Australia (WA) Act 1964 enables the Trust to establish by-laws to assist regulating the affairs, business and management of the Trust.
Trust by-laws are adopted by general or special general meetings of the National Trust.
|
| Rules
| Section 27 of the National Trust of Australia (WA) Act 1964 enables the Trust to establish rules to assist regulating the affairs, business and management of the Trust.
Trust rules are adopted by general or special general meetings of the National Trust.
|
| Strategic Plan 2011-2016
| Every five years the National Trust adopts a Strategic Plan to guide the activity of the organisation.
The National Trust of Australia (WA) is a Trust for both government and the community in accordance with the National Trust of Australia (WA) Act and the Cabinet mandate as a statutory authority [body] for the delivery of heritage services through whole of government appropriations.
| - The National Trust primarily works for others not itself
- The National Trust is primarily a custodian of heritage places.
- The National Trust is managed with volunteers but not by volunteers
- Heritage Places provide opportunities
|
|
| Strategic Asset Plan 2013-2023
| As a statutory body, The National Trust of Australia (WA), (the Trust), is accountable to Parliament and has the capacity to manage State Government heritage assets using a range of tools including government appropriations, grants including those available from the Commonwealth and Lotterywest, donations, sponsorships and commercial leases. It also provides a range of services to the public such as tax deductible appeals and other avenues for investment into heritage conservation and interpretation projects as well as comprehensive public education and learning programmes.
| Strategic Asset Plan 2013-2023
| Maintenance Business Case For Public Places Managed By The National Trust
| As requested by the Minister in 2009, the National Trust of Australia (WA) has examined the issue of maintenance funding for heritage places under National Trust stewardship. The intent of this document is to alert the Minister and the State Government of a problem where the situation will get worse over time if action is not taken. This document provides an overview of the business case for a planned strategy of maintenance investment for heritage places. Endorsement of the philosophy presented will allow the final formulation of the formal Business Case based on current whole of Government and Treasury procedures.
| Maintenance Business Case For Public Places
| National Trust of Australia (WA) Heritage Policy
| In order to value our heritage, it is important for government to provide leadership and to establish key policies which are valued, practical, sustainable and holistic in nature, and which will allow for a more integrated whole of government approach.
To facilitate this, the Heritage Policy highlights key issues and principles and establishes a set of policies which can lay the foundation for detailed policy initiatives through the and development of a Heritage Strategy.
| Heritage – our past, our present, our legacy for the future
| Corporate Policies
| Property Acquisition and Disposal Policy
| The current property portfolio of the National Trust has been determined by a number of factors. These factors are:
| - The broad intent of the National Trust of Australia (WA) Act is to manage heritage places for the purposes of public education and public utility;
- The heritage places managed by the National Trust remain in public ownership for the ongoing benefit of the Western Australian community;
- Many places were acquired for the purposes of long term conservation when there was no other legislated or statutory alternative available to the community or government for this purpose;
- Places under stewardship of the National Trust are held under a wide variety of titles (freehold, conditional freehold, vesting and management orders) and reflect the variety of need, opportunity or advantage for the transfer of these places to the National Trust over time;
- The unique public-private-corporate partnering advantages of the National Trust in the management of heritage assets has been recognised by local and state government agencies with a resulting increase in requests for stewardship of these assets by the National Trust;
- The National Trust is able to hold, over the long term, “at risk” assets which could be lost to public ownership until the circumstances evolve to permit community access and enjoyment through conservation and interpretation.
|
|
|
| Reconciliation Action Plan
| The National Trust's Reconciliation Action Plan identifies activity that can be undertaken to ensure Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander heritage values in Western Australia are incorporated into National Trusts programs, projects and places. It also promotes development of partnerships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people with regards to Trust programs for a wide range of purposes such as conservation and interpretation.
