Criteria for a new National Park
To help Ministers decide which areas are to be taken forward as Scotland's next National Parks, we need to establish the key criteria areas should meet. We want to build on the Aims in the Act of Parliament which establishes National Parks to:
1. Conserve and enhance nature
2. Promote sustainable use of natural resources
3. Promote understanding and enjoyment
4. Promote sustainable economic and social development
We will therefore also be considering why National Park status would improve an area's future, and the level of support for the designation from people within the area.
Why the contribution is important
We need to have some criteria to use to assess areas for consideration as National Parks. We want the public to add their ideas to our existing criteria.
