Description

As part of Defra's response to the Landscapes Review, the Government committed to 'agreeing a new Targets and Outcomes Framework for protected landscapes, which sets targets for their contributions to national environment and climate commitments, to be embedded in the management plans' - Environmental Improvement Plan 2023. The Framework was published by Defra on 31 January 2024 - see https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/protected-landscapes-targets-and-outcomes-framework/protected-landscapes-targets-and-outcomes-framework.

The aims of this contract are to:

1. Provide national guidance on the process by which each local partnership should calculate/estimate the contributions of their Protected Landscape towards each of the Framework's national targets.

2. Provide tailored initial advice to each of the individual Protected Landscape bodies to help their local partnership to develop bespoke contributions to the national targets, using the guidance/process developed under 1 above.
