Strategic Development Plan

The Strategic Development Planning Authority for Edinburgh and South East Scotland (SESplan) prepared and consulted upon a Main Issues Report (MIR) between May and August 2010, as an important first stage in the preparation of a Strategic Development Plan (SDP) for the area for the period 2012 to 2032. 

The Councils of South East Scotland, including Midlothian Council, considered the responses received on the MIR and have prepared a Proposed Plan, an Action Programme, an updated Environmental Report and other supporting documentation. These are available on the SESplan website.

Representations on the Proposed Plan and/or Environmental Report are being invited for a 6 week period, between Monday 7 November and Monday 19 December 2011. Any such representations must be received by SESplan by no later than 17:00 on Monday 19 December. Details of this consultation and how to submit representations can be found on the SESplan website or by telephone:
