To consider a report of the Dorset National Landscape Manager.

Decision:

That the Dorset National Landscape interim management plan be adopted.

 

Reason for the decision:

a) to fulfil Dorset Council’s legal obligations under the Countryside & Rights of Way Act 2000.

 

b) to enable the existing management plan policy framework to remain current until a new plan is adopted.

Minutes:

The Leader of the Council introduced the report. The current management plan was due to finish in 2024, however the government gave permission to extend it to 2025 whilst a new plan was developed.

 

Members asked questions related to local food producers and the economy. The Head of Growth and Economic Regeneration would provide a written response to members on this topic.

 

Proposed by Cllr N Ireland, seconded by Cllr C Sutton.

 

Decision:

That the Dorset National Landscape interim management plan be adopted.
