foreword This is the fifth Regional Spatial Strategy (RSS) Annual Monitoring Report produced by the East Midlands Regional Assembly as Regional Planning Body (RPB) and monitors polices contained within the first Regional Spatial Strategy for the East Midlands (RSS8) which was published in March 2005. The Report builds on the partnership working established for the previous four rounds of annual monitoring, with much of the technical work undertaken by Intelligence East Midlands, overseen by the Assembly’s Monitoring and Review Advisory Group and other RSS Advisory Groups. In the context of the new planning system, with its focus on delivery of sustainable development and sustainable communities, monitoring takes on an added importance in providing a check on whether those aims are being achieved. An important aspect of these arrangements is the flexibility to update components of the RSS to reflect changing circumstances.The ability to focus on specific sub regional policy areas and to be able to undertake partial reviews, as opposed to revising the entire RSS, allows RPBs to respond quickly to changing priorities for development in their areas. Monitoring will play a critical part in identifying these.That is why part of the test of soundness of a RSS is whether there are clear mechanisms for implementation and monitoring. The RSS has a critical interface with national policy, other regional strategies and local plans and programmes. The Regional Assembly is increasingly coordinating RSS monitoring with the national, regional and local monitoring of these strategies, plans and programmes.This is helping to promote the exchange of information, achieve some degree of consistency between different planning and monitoring activities and reduce overall resource requirements. It is also assisting the Assembly to gain a greater understanding of the changes taking place in the Region.The Assembly continues to work with local authorities, regional partners and Communities and Local Government (CLG) on the development and collection of indicators and data and is playing its part in the drive to secure agreement on data specifications. The Assembly wish to acknowledge the support of the Region’s Planning Authorities and wide range of other data providers who have once again contributed data, and whose time and technical expertise have contributed to the production of this Report. I hope you find this fifth RSS Annual Monitoring Report for the East Midlands both informative and interesting to read.
