Planning System – Mandatory Training for Elected Members: Consultation Analysis
April 4, 2024 by Planning Directorate No Comments | Category Architecture, Planning
Mandatory training for elected members was included in the Planning Scotland Act 2019, alongside a package of measures to improve the performance of the planning system. From 13 July to 26 October 2023, we consulted on how this could be implemented.
Following the public consultation last year, we have published an independent analysis of the responses. Please view the consultation analysis here.
The consultation responses (where consent has been provided) are now also available to view online at Citizen Space.
We are currently considering the responses to the consultation and will provide an update on next steps in due course.
