The Scottish Government are consulting on what should go in their new land use strategy. They are required to produce a strategy by section 57 of the Climate Change (Scotland) Act to set out their objectives in relation to sustainable land use, their proposals and policies for meeting those objectives, and the timescales for action. The land use strategy will be particularly focused on the climate change targets of a reduction in emissions of 42% by 2020 and 80% by 2050. I’m trying to think what uses such a strategy might have that won’t duplicate the National Planning Framework. The Government are themselves asking how the land use strategy should interact with the planning system, so do comment on their forum.
