Orkney Islands Council’s (OIC) Corporate Strategic Plan 2013-18 states that it would attempt to support the commemorations. The Development and Marine Planning Department was looking to undertake a survey to assess the condition of war memorials across the county in order to identify those in poor condition. They would look at the condition of the memorials and their surrounding areas and identify any areas where repairs or new works might be necessary.
