BALI and the Landscape Institute have come together to deliver a manifesto ahead of the Scottish Parliament Elections in May.The landscaping industry has much to offer across priority areas including housing, climate and the environment, health and social well-being, and economic growth.

Together, with a stronger industry voice, we are calling for the next Scottish Government to:

  • Deliver landscape-led development and improve public procurement

  • Invest in landscape skills, capacity and education

  • Introduce integrated landscape-scale planning and governance
