Shared Ownership
We are pleased to announce the publication of the Scottish Government Good Practice Principles for Shared Ownership of Onshore Renewable Energy Developments.
Shared Ownership and the planning system
Stakeholders should be aware of the relationship between Shared Ownership and the planning system.
Stakeholders may wish to be aware of a letter sent from the Chief Planner for Scotland, John McNairney, to the Heads of Planning at Scottish planning authorities in November 2015. This letter explicitly acknowledges the publication of the Shared Ownership Good Practice Principles, and their relevance in the planning process in assessing shared ownership project.
Supplementary advice for developers is available in addition to the Good Practice Principles.
