Paper 4 - Delivery Of Statutory Duties As Conferred By Land Reform (Scotland) Act 2003

This document contains information for the Cairngorms National Park Authority's Performance Committee, updating members on the delivery of the Park Authority's statutory duties under the Land Reform (Scotland) Act 2003. The paper highlights access casework undertaken by the Access and Infrastructure Team, stakeholder engagement through the Local Outdoor Access Forum (LOAF), and promotion of the Scottish Outdoor Access Code (SOAC) via publications and digital media. While strategic risks are low, reputational and financial risks exist if access cases aren't resolved. The Park Authority is also reviewing its Core Paths Plan and the LOAF continues to play a crucial advisory role.
