These Regulations make provision in connection with the preparation of local development plans under Part 2 of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997 (“the Act”). A local development plan is to be prepared by a planning authority (section 16(1) of the Act). Before preparing a proposed local development plan the planning authority must prepare an evidence report under section 16B of the Act. Part 2 of the Regulations relates to assessment of an evidence report by a person appointed by the Scottish Ministers under section 16B(8) of the Act. Regulation 4 also specifies the meaning of the term “Gypsies and Travellers” for the purposes of the preparation of an evidence report under section 16B of the Act.
