On 25th July the Scottish Government issued a suite of consultation material under the overall heading of “Planning Scotland’s Seas”, which will eventually become the guiding documents for all Marine Planning and developments in Scotland’s seas.
The documents include the draft National Marine Plan for Scotland, draft Sectoral Marine Plans for Offshore Wind, Wave and Tidal energy in Scottish Waters, and a draft Circular on “The relationship between the statutory land use planning system and marine planning and licensing” in Scotland.
The consultation period on these documents runs until 13 November 2013.
