The conservation and management of the site is guided by the Australia ICOMOS, Charter for Places of Cultural Significance (the Burra Charter) and Fremantle Prison: A policy for its conservation (James Semple Kerr 1992, revised 1998).
As part of the management policies for the long-term sustainability of the site as a heritage place, new uses have been developed for a number of buildings within the precinct.
Leases include tourist accommodation, small business development, education, and community ventures.
