Question
To ask the Scottish Government what action it is taking to ensure that there is meaningful and inclusive community engagement in the planning system.
Answer
We are continuing with our Design Charrettes Programme and Activating Ideas Fund. Backed by funding of £300,000, they will enable people across Scotland to have their say on the long-term future of their community. We will consult on further proposals for a forthcoming Planning Bill this winter.
