The North Lanarkshire Local Development Plan

Intention to Adopt

We have made changes to the North Lanarkshire Local Development Plan Modified Proposed Plan following the publication of the Report of Examination in May 2021.

Following approval by the Planning Committee in November 2021, we have submitted the Plan as amended to the Scottish Ministers for approval to adopt.

Scottish Ministers have advised that they have extended the period to assess the Plan for a further 14 days. We may Adopt the Plan on 6 July, unless directed not to by the Scottish Ministers.

Once Adopted, the North Lanarkshire Local Plan 2012 will be superseded.
