This document contains an outline of the Cairngorms National Park Authority's (NPA) 2023/24 budget, which is being presented to the Resources Committee. The document shows that the NPA's core income is set to increase by £2.117 million due to a rise in funding from the Scottish Government for both the National Parks budget, peatland restoration and nature recovery. Although the budget is still in development, there are already planned investments in staff, operational plans, and website modernisation and the committee is invited to review the budget position and provide feedback before the budget proposals are presented to the full board on 24 March 2023.
