Structure, local and unitary development plans are the main way that local authorities make sure that their conservation policies are integrated with other planning policies. Archaeology, buildings and natural environment information services should be consulted during the preparation of plans in line with PPG 12 (DoE 1992a) and Planning Policy Wales (see [Panel 1|http://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk/ifp/Wiki.jsp?page=SectionA.4#section-SectionA.4-Panel1TheNationalLegislativeAndPolicyFrameworkForHERs|target='_blank']). In Scotland [SPP1 (Scottish Executive 2002)|http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Publications/2002/11/15751/12817|target='_blank'] states that one of the primary objectives of the planning system is “to maintain and enhance the quality of the natural heritage and built environment” (para.4), that planning should encourage sustainable development by conserving important historic and cultural assets (para. 7), and that the National Planning Policy Guidelines are a material consideration in development control (para. 51) – archaeology is covered by NPPG 5, whilst [NPPG 18|http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Publications/1999/04/nppg18/|target='_blank'] covers the Historic Environment. In particular, development plans should make reference to the existence of the HER and both Local Plans and Unitary Development Plans should state that the HER will be used in the assessment of development proposals. English Heritage has published guidance on conservation policies in both strategic and local plans in England (English Heritage 1993). No equivalent existed in Scotland at the time of writing.

In September 2004, the [Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act|http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2004/5/contents|target='_blank'] came into force. This requires Local Planning Authorities in England and Wales to have a Local Development Framework in place by Spring 2007. These will replace the existing system of Unitary Development Plans, Local Plans and Structure Plans. A [Guide for Heritage Groups on Local Development Frameworks|http://www.heritagelink.org.uk/docs/heritage_groups_guide.pdf] is available on the [Heritage Alliance web site|http://www.heritagelink.org.uk/|target='_blank']. In Wales Local Planning Authorities will be required to prepare and maintain up to date development plans which are to be called local development plans (Planning: Delivering for Wales – Initial Guidance Note on Implications For Development Plans In Wales of The Planning And Compulsory Purchase Act (Revised Version October 2004) (National Assembly for Wales: Welsh Assembly Government 2004)).

Planning authorities are recommended to make full use of the expertise of the county archaeological officer and to compile and maintain an HER as the basis for assessing the archaeological implications of development. Early consultation with county archaeological officers and the HER is recommended to reduce potential conflicts between the needs of development and archaeology.
