The Scottish Government website ( www.scotland.gov.uk/planning ) contains details of every entry. If further information is required about any of the entries, please contact the relevant nominee.
Selection Process
During the short-listing process, we examined each submission for evidence of outstanding work in the application of professional knowledge, management, partnership, regeneration, innovation, sustainable development, community interest and customer satisfaction. We also looked carefully for indications of quality in mainstream development planning, development management, development on the ground and community involvement and considered whether the nominated category was the most appropriate. We then selected a short-list and scrutinised each nomination in a separate presentation or visit, depending on the category. We concluded by discussing and agreeing our recommendations.
