This page shows links to RTPI policy responses relevant to Scotland.  Where a consultation applies to a wider entity to which Scotland relates (such as the European Union or the UK), it is shown here.

Policy responses are listed in order of date of issue, with the most recent first.  Scroll down the page to see earlier responses.

Each response carries a file number (eg P2006/59) which enables RTPI to track related documents and correspondence. Its relevance to particular places/jurisdictions is also recorded.  There is a link to a place-based view of policy documents for other places at the foot of this page.

You will need to have Adobe Reader (available as a free download) installed on your computer to read these files.
