Labour plans to ensure protection of Opera House

The federal Australian Labor Party has provided plans to ensure the protection of heritage sites, including stopping the Sydney Opera House being used as a billboard.

The Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act ensures that the Commonwealth has a responsibility and interest in cultural heritage.

Labour spokespeople have ensured the plan won’t just be a ‘nice idea’.

This comes after Octobers protests following the controversial Everest Horse Racing advertisement across the Opera House.
