Additionally, the Database stores the records of places in Heritage Overlays of 24 Local Planning Schemes (note there are 79 Local Government Authorities: not all heritage overlays are listed). It also includes the records of non-statutory listings held by the National Trust of Australia (Victoria) and the Victorian War Heritage Inventory.
