Planner's Guide
Tourism, in all its forms, is of crucial importance to the economic, social and environmental well-being of the whole country. The planning system has a vital role to play in terms of facilitating the development and improvement of tourism in appropriate locations.
As such, a guide has been produced to:
- ensure that planners understand the importance of tourism and take this fully into account when preparing development plans and taking planning decisions;
- ensure that those involved in the tourism industry understand the principles of national planning policy as they apply to tourism and how these can be apllied when preparing individual planning applications;
- ensure that planners and the tourism industry work together effectively to facilitate, promote and deliver new tourism developments in a sustainable way.
