This document contains the Cairngorms National Park Authority's formal board paper from 14 June 2019, discussing the National Park Partnership Plan (NPPP) progress for 2018/19. The NPPP is the strategic plan for the National Park, guiding the work of public bodies and partners to manage the Park, provide strategic context for development and land use, promote sustainable tourism, and contribute to the Scottish Government's goals. The board is asked to note the progress made in 2018/19 and identify priority areas for the coming year, considering the impact of climate change and biodiversity emergencies, as well as ongoing reviews of grouse and deer management. The main strategic risk to the NPPP is ensuring sufficient resources (financial and personnel) to deliver the plan by 2022.
