## Summary

The Scottish Land Commission is seeking expertise in the "International experience of regional land use planning" to enhance their understanding of land use governance. This open tender, initiated on 23 January 2020, aims to identify and evaluate various regional planning strategies, considering factors such as spatial scale, organisational dependencies, and policy diffusion. The tender period is set to conclude on 14 February 2020, with bids submitted electronically. The procurement falls under the services category and is relevant to the fields of land reform and public governance.

This procurement presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in environmental consultancy, land use planning, and policy analysis. Companies with experience in researching and implementing regional climate action, urban and rural integration, and partnership facilitation are particularly well-suited to compete. The awarded contract budget is £26,000, indicating a potential for significant engagement in collaborative projects that can influence land use practices in Scotland.

## Notice

The research should: identify and examine examples of regional level land use planning and explain the spatial scale, governance model and legislative/policy underpinning; where possible comment on the practical implementation, strengths and weaknesses of each example; identify whether the approach is dependent on key organisations, data or information; consider in particular examples that integrate rural and urban land use planning, co-ordinate regional level climate action, and enable conflict resolution; and consider the relevance and potential lessons for the establishment of regional land use partnerships and plans in Scotland.
