DCMS, in partnership with English Heritage, has begun a major Review of Heritage Protection (which was previously announced by the Secretary of State in November 2002 - see http://www.culture.gov.uk/heritage/search.asp?Name=/pressreleases/heritage/2002/dcms206).
An early paper - "Review of Heritage Protection" setting out the issues for debate has been published. This is available online at:

DCMS is seeking Ideas from across the many interests, and focus groups will be held in each English region. A formal Consultation Paper on the review will be launched on July 11th. Consultation will end on October 3rd.
