Why your views matter

New procedures for Local Development Plans introduced under the Planning (Scotland) Act 2019, (the Act) require planning authorities to submit to the Scottish Ministers a summary of the evidence they will rely on in preparing their Local Development Plan.  This series of topic papers sets out the evidence relating to specific requirements of the Act as well as for each policy area that will be covered within the Perth and Kinross Local Development Plan 3.    

We would welcome your views on whether the evidence we have gathered is sufficient, and if, in your view, how we intend to use that evidence meets the requirements of the Act, National Planning Framework 4, and any other possible considerations, including local detail, which should be included in the next Local Development Plan.
