Background on Managing Change guidance
Managing Change in the Historic Environment guidance series supports good decision making in the historic environment. The guidance notes set out the key things to think about when different types of changes are proposed.
Managing Change can have weight in any decision where the Historic Environment Policy for Scotland (HEPS) is relevant. This can include decisions on funding, plans and policies.
The guidance series forms part of national guidance on managing change in the historic environment. The National Planning Framework (NPF4) refers decision makers to this guidance, and it is a material consideration for relevant decisions in the Scottish planning system.
