World Town Planning Day
The motion
That the Parliament notes that 8 November 2019 marks the 70th anniversary of World Town Planning Day; endorses the role of town planning in supporting the creation of great places that promote thriving communities, including by equipping them to face current environmental, social and economic challenges; believes that joined-up planning and place-making are essential both for addressing the climate emergency and minimising the effects of climate change, as well as promoting public health, and commends town planners throughout Scotland who, it believes, under acute resource pressure, strive to work collaboratively to meet and overcome these multiple and complex challenges.
