Item8AANationalPlanningFramework4Update
This document contains an update on the National Planning Framework 4 (NPF4). NPF4 will be Scotland's long-term plan for development and infrastructure up to 2045, and a revised version was submitted to the Scottish Parliament on 8 November 2022. It is divided into three sections: a national spatial strategy, national planning policy, and annexes. The Cairngorms National Park (CNP) is located within the North region, and the strategy aims to protect environmental assets and stimulate investment in natural solutions. NPF4 includes 18 national developments to support the strategy, and while there are no specific national developments within the CNP boundary, there are several Scotland-wide developments that the Cairngorms National Park Authority (CNPA) may need to consider. The document also highlights the implications of the NPF4 for the next CNP Local Development Plan (LDP) and housing policy, including a minimum requirement for housing land.
