New Rules to Safeguard Crofts

New planning legislation designed to maintain the long-term viability of crofting communities has been proposed.

The Scottish Government has today proposed to Parliament that new planning rules should be introduced to strengthen protection of crofting land. If passed, the rules will ensure the Crofters Commission is consulted on planning applications which could significantly affect the extent or quality of croft land, and that their views inform planning decisions.
