Scotland's planning system is distinct from the rest of the UK, with its own legislation, policies, and procedures. The Scottish Government sets national planning policy through the National Planning Framework and Scottish Planning Policy, while each of Scotland's 32 local authorities is responsible for handling planning applications and developing local development plans.
Whether you're planning an extension in Edinburgh, a new build in the Highlands, or a conservation project in Glasgow, understanding your local authority's specific requirements is essential. Use the interactive map above to find your local planning handbook.
