Draft Perpetual Care Framework

Overview

What’s this about?

The NSW Government is seeking feedback from cemetery operators and communities on its draft Perpetual Care Framework.

Given the community, cultural, and historic significance of cemeteries and memorial parks as places of remembrance and reflection, it is important that they are respected and cared for into the future. This is why the NSW Government is seeking feedback from cemetery operators and communities on its draft Perpetual Care Framework.

The Framework outlines an approach to caring for cemeteries into the future, and planning for what that care may look like and how it will be funded.

Your feedback will ensure that the Framework and the regulations that will be developed are appropriate and effective for the long-term care of our cemeteries and memorial parks.

You can visit the project webpage to familiarise yourself with the draft Framework and supporting materials before providing your feedback.

You can provide feedback on any or all parts of the draft Framework.
