  • Rural Development Plan - Have your say

    Created: 21/02/2025
    News/Events Category: Consultations


    The Scottish Government is committed to publishing a plan setting out how all parts of the Scottish Government are delivering for Scotland’s rural communities, by the end of the current Parliament.

    This is a key opportunity to take a fresh look at how everyone can work together to bring about change and address the issues that people face in rural Scotland.  

    The Rural Delivery Plan will act as a framework to consider the full breadth of policy delivery in the rural space. 

    The Plan will cover a range of key areas, such as agriculture, marine, land reform, transport, housing, social justice, population, skills, digital connectivity, economic development, and health and social care.

    The Rural Delivery Plan will focus specifically on how the Scottish Government is supporting communities in mainland rural Scotland. 

    Why your views matter

    The Rural Delivery Plan will introduce, for the first time, a vision for rural Scotland, underpinned by a series of strategic objectives and key performance indicators which articulate where they want to get to, how they will plan to get there, and assess the impact of their ongoing efforts.

    The Scottish Government wants to work together with rural communities, businesses, and stakeholders. They want the vision, strategic objectives, and indicators to be informed by the views of those living and working in rural Scotland, to the greatest extent possible. 

    This survey gives everyone who has interest in rural Scotland a chance to share their views and to help shape the Rural Delivery Plan.

    All questions are optional. 

    For more information, you can e-mail [email protected]
