Consultation is a vital aspect of how Historic Environment Scotland is run.

Responding to external consultations
We are also committed to advising others on a wide range of issues relating to the Historic Environment and regularly support the development of policy and legislation that relates to the historic environment. This can take the form of consultation responses, Government briefings or Parliamentary inquiries.
