Mediation in Scottish Planning – what happens now?

Mediation in Scottish Planning – what happens now?

Date & time: Tue, 22 October 2019; 09:30 – 16:00.
Venue: Edinburgh.

On 20 June 2019, the Scottish Parliament passed the Planning (Scotland) Bill, bringing in a range of reforms to the planning system. Notably, the new Bill introduces mediation into the planning system for the first time. As the Bill awaits Royal Assent over the summer, work now begins on defining how this will work in practice, considering where in the system and under which circumstances mediation can be most effective. PAS and Scottish Mediation are jointly hosting a one-day conference on 22 October to explore how mediation in planning will work, from a practitioner perspective (planners and mediators), a community perspective and what opportunities this will create for planning in all relevant sectors.
