How we use your response

As Scotland’s principal environmental regulator, our purpose is to protect and improve the environment in ways that, as far as possible, also contribute to improving health and well-being and achieving sustainable economic growth. Our Corporate Plan 2024-2027 sets our strategic ambition and priorities. Our Annual Operating Plans set out how we will implement our priorities every year.

In delivering these priorities we engage with those who have an interest in and/or are affected by our regulations and duties. One way we engage is through formal consultations. This is your opportunity to tell us what you think. The responses we receive help us to understand what matters most to people and how we can deliver our duties efficiently and effectively. We will consider all responses we receive during the consultation period.
