CAIRNGORMS NATIONAL PARK AUTHORITY 
Planning Paper 2 08/10/04 

CAIRNGORMS NATIONAL PARK AUTHORITY 
Title: DRAFT INTERIM ENFORCEMENT STATEMENT 
Prepared by: DON MCKEE, HEAD OF PLANNING 

Purpose 
At the Planning Committee on 13th February 2004 Members considered a report 
on the legislative context and the "mechanics" of planning enforcement. 
Pending the completion of the Cairngorms National Park Local Plan it was 
resolved that an interim statement should be prepared and brought to 
Committee for approval. A draft of this statement is attached for consideration. 

Recommendations 
That Members accept the statement as the Cairngorms National Park Authority 
policy on enforcement of planning control until such time as alternative policies 
relating to enforcement are in place via the local plan process. 

Executive Summary 
The statement is based on the duty of stewardship incumbent on everyone with 
an interest in the Park: not just the authorities, but also the communities and 
others who live in and/or enjoy the Park. Sound planning is at the heart of this 
duty to ensure that the right development happens in the right place at the right 
time within the context of legislation, policy and the 4 aims of the Park. Robust 
enforcement of planning control is an essential part of this process and the 
Cairngorms National Park Authority will work actively with others to ensure 
that development takes place within the proper planning framework.
