Land use - getting the best from our land: strategy 2021 to 2026
Scotland's Third Land Use Strategy sets out our vision, objectives and policies to achieve sustainable land use. The strategy covers the next five years and aims to provide a more holistic understanding of our land, the demands we place upon it and the benefits we get from our land.
Annex D – Examples of national crosscutting policy action.
In our 'Using landscapes to understand land use' section we have highlighted that within each illustrative landscape we have showcased policies most relevant to that landscape, but that these policies may be applicable nationally even if only highlighted in a single landscape. The table below provides a matrix showing how this works in practice.
