  • Petitions Committee Response
    PE1095/G Franck David Assistant Clerk to the Public Petitions Committee Tower 4, TG.01 The Scottish Parliament Holyrood EH99 1SP Dear Franck David, Public Petitions Committee response. Further to your email of 17th December regarding your request for a response to the petition received by your committee from the Pentland Hills Regional Park. Background information The designation of the Pentland Hills Regional Park was confirmed until September 1986, following the outcome of a public inquiry. The designation was made under section 48(A) of the Countryside (Scotland) Act 1967 .Initially the Pentland Hills Regional Park was operated by Lothian Regional Council who prepared a Subject Local Plan to guide the Pentland Hills Regional Park policies and management. The policies relevant to the Pentland Hills Regional Park contained within the former Lothian Regional Council’s Subject Local Plan were then incorporated into the local plans of the respective three unitary authorities. Pentland Hills Regional Park is currently covered by the City of Edinburgh Council’s Finalised Rural West Edinburgh Local Plan (2003); Midlothian Council’s Adopted Local Plan (2003) and the West Lothian Local Plan Finalised (2005). The aim of Regional Park designation is to cover extensive areas of land, in diverse ownership, where provision for public recreation is given a higher profile by establishing a co-ordinated framework for the integrated management of recreation with traditional land use in close collaboration with local interests. National Planning Policy Guidance (NPPG) 14 (s.21) states that Regional Parks play a valuable role in providing opportunities for urban populations to gain access to attractive areas of countryside for recreation and enjoyment of the natural heritage.
