LINK call on MSPs to ensure that the RPP2 package of measures ensures that we meet all our future climate targets and that early action is taken to avoid impact on the natural environment. LINK recommends that the RPP2 be improved to ensure:
- Proposals are upgraded to the level of Policy, and implemented early;
- Protection and, where appropriate, recovery of the marine environment;
- Specific improvements to policies and proposals in the land use sector.
