Commentary on Local Plan coverage

In the last 5 years 41 local plans have been adopted. Only 1 local plan has been adopted in the last six months. By September 2001 the proportion of Scotland's population living in an area covered by a local plan adopted in the past five years had risen to 40%. 60% are covered by a plan either finalised or adopted in the past five years

Local plans continue to be replaced and consolidated, and this process will eventually reduce the number of plans required to cover Scotland to 86.

The new and replacement local plans coming forward are at the following stages:
