The formation of such a body to inform and liaise with groups and government departments, including Tourism Tasmania, would help overcome many of the pitfalls outlined above. In the end, whatever approach or emphasis we adopt as Tasmanians interested in our own history, we should embrace tourism 'with cautious enthusiasm', but put much more effort into emphasising the cultural value of the assets that we have inherited and that we interpret - and stress above all that 'they are inalienable and irreplaceable'.
