1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 This consultation paper contains proposals for legislation to give Scottish Ministers powers to designate, de-designate, or revise the boundaries of any National Scenic Area ( NSA). A statutory definition of purpose including criteria for designation of NSAs is proposed. The paper also contains proposals for promoting a non-statutory approach for the management of NSAs utilising the expertise of SNH and working towards preparation of management strategies and implementation of action plans for individual NSAs.
1.2 The consultation paper may also stimulate a wider debate on landscape issues and the kinds of landscape which we want.
