This document contains an update on the Cairngorms National Park Authority's Peatland ACTION programme, presented to the Performance Committee on 8 March 2024. The document reviews progress against targets for 2023-24, plans for 2024-25, and the possible effects of revised national budget positions on the programme. Although the programme is largely on track to meet the National Park Partnership Plan target for peatland restoration, a reduction in funding could affect the sector's confidence and ability to innovate, despite landowner engagement and a resilient project pipeline. Overall, senior managers believe there are no matters of strategic significance that need immediate attention.
