And large sections of hard cliffs
Out of those 295 policy units
95 Do nothing (SMP1) / No active intervention (SMP2)
35% Immediate change
29% short term change
69% long term change
+ 15 policies changing from some form of management to No Active Intervention

SMP policy - MR
SMP understanding - increased

SMP intent - to move away from
reliance on linear defence

And so to the Isles of Scilly. Not enough to just have policy unit policies
Need to use the SMP to examine basic infrastructure
Using the SMP to initiate discussions with the whole community.
A beginning not an end.

The aim of the SMP2
process has been to move
towards a more integrated
plan for sustainable
management of the
shoreline
Challenge but build from the SMP2 process
Not policies and fixed time periods but
a direction of travel.
Increased use of the SMP2 as the basis
for broader coastal management.Adaptation:
“Central to this approach
is the principle that
adaptation cannot be
solved through a single
action, but is rather a
process to be managed
over time.”
RTPI. “This challenges us to think beyond the scope of statutory systems and to take a broader view of what society needs through planning.”
New vision for planning
