4. The Aberdeenshire pilot produced an Issues and Opportunities report as opposed to a framework document. For the purposes of this evaluation it is viewed as a suitable proxy for a regional framework and has been assessed in the same way as the Scottish Borders framework document.

5. The pilot also organised a fourth workshop for land use practitioners from outside of Aberdeenshire.

6. Upper Deeside was an existing JHI research site. Huntly was chosen by participants in the first review workshop based on a list of criteria agreed during the workshop.
