Planning Group
In March 2004 Planning staff working in South West Protected
Landscapes came together for the first time to exchange practice
and consider joint working activities.
A CD-ROM was produced and circulated capturing learning from
the day and linking to a range of good practice case studies around
the region.

Equestrian Development - Impacts and Management
in Protected Landscapes
SWPL is working with partners to develop good practice guidance for equestrian development in Protected Areas. A Task & Finish Group has been established and will meet through the year. We are aiming to produce a south west summary of guidance with supporting materials for a number of Protected Areas early in 2010.
AONB/NPA Management Plan Overview
SWPL has developed a regional summary of management plan content/ priorities as a searchable database on this website. A regional overview helps raise awareness of Managment Plan ambitions and identify key commitments for delivery of regional environmental and cultural priorities.
