National Planning Framework 4 – Call for Ideas response

30th April 2020

As part of its preparations for National Planning Framework 4 (NPF4), the Scottish Government issued a ‘Call for Ideas’ from stakeholders.

Scottish Environment LINK believes NPF4 has a responsibility to set out how we are going to live within our planetary boundaries in the decades ahead as part of our response to the climate and nature emergencies. It should form the foundation of a transformation in Scotland’s planning system to deliver public benefits, meet net-zero goals and contribute to the recovery of biodiversity. In the response, LINK members have suggested a range of bold policies to allow intelligent decisions to be made by planning authorities across Scotland, enabling Scotland’s communities to take actions which together will put us on the path to a resilient, socially just, climate-friendly and nature-rich Scotland.
