Debate in the Scottish Parliament on Tues 18th March has resulted in cross-party support for the Core Areas of Wild Land map produced by SNH using methods and approaches original developed by WRi for mapping wildness in Scotland’s national parks. This mapping will form the basis for wild land protection in the new National Planning Framework 3.
