I thank Professor Kealy for a very interesting presentation. It is helpful for us to understand the general context of conservation, preservation and so on. I have some experience because I come from a historic cultural town.

What does the professor think of the term "management of change"? Finding a sustainable use is the key to preserving any building or context as far as is practical. If a building is protected too much it will not find the modern use that will protect it and it will suffer and decline. Does he agree that management of change and finding a sustainable use for a building is the key?
