Current status: Answered by Neil Gray on 12 December 2022
To ask the Scottish Government how it defines "managed decline" in relation to Historic Environment Scotland’s approach to managing Scotland’s historic environment.
As I indicated to the Member in response to his question S6O-00815 on 3 March 2022, I will be discussing with Historic Environment Scotland potential future management approaches for the properties in care, particularly in response to the undoubted challenges of climate change, once Historic Environment Scotland has completed its considerations. There is as yet no agreement on a definition of “managed decline” and no properties are subject to such an approach.
