Context1.4 How the Management Plan Relates toOther Plans and StrategiesThe Management Plan takes forward national and localpolicies and other strategies within the framework of NationalPark purposes and duty along with local circumstances. It setsthe context for other documents relating specifically to theNational Park such as the Local Development Framework andLocal Biodiversity Action Plan. The policies in the ManagementPlan will also help to inform both national and other localstrategies, for example those produced by the constituentlocal authorities.‘The Natural Choice’ White Paper 2 outlines the Government’svision for the natural environment over the next 50 years. Thefour key themes of the White Paper are:● Protecting and improving our natural environment;● Growing a green economy;● Reconnecting people and nature; and● International and European Union leadership.National Park Authorities are already delivering many of theambitions set out in the White Paper, for example throughtheir work with volunteers and schools, working with partnerson biodiversity, cultural heritage and local food and adoptingan ecosystems services approach. Ecosystem services aredefined as services provided by the natural environment thatbenefit people. In the National Park these include provisionof drinking water, clean air, food production, open spacefor recreation, sense of place, sense of history and a placefor inspiration. The Plan also takes account of the EuropeanLandscape Convention which establishes a framework forlandscape management.The policies, plans and strategies of other organisationsdealing with specific topic areas have been taken into account.These include plans such as the Uplands Policy Review,Marine Policy Statement and Biodiversity 2020 (the EnglandBiodiversity Strategy), and locally the Yorkshire and HumberHistoric Environment Strategy, Heritage Coast ManagementPlan, Catchment Flood Management Plans and CommunityStrategies. The following ‘themes’ can be identified fromthe five community based strategies developed by the localauthorities covering the National Park:● Conserve and enhance biodiversity, natural and builtenvironments and cultural heritage;● Reduce the risk and mitigate against the impact offlooding;● Reduce carbon emissions and adapt to and plan forclimate change;● Encourage physical activity through use of greeninfrastructure;● Increase visitor numbers especially in off peak months;● Support apprenticeships/local skills, enterprise and localbusinesses;● Improve accessibility and access to public transportincluding community transport;● Improve communications infrastructure; and● Maintain and improve access to services and support andgrant aid for village facilities and community activities.The Authority publishes a Business Plan setting out how it willallocate resources to deliver its share of the Management Planover a three year period in the light of commitments by itspartners. Strategies and plans on specific topics have also beenpublished by the Authority since the last Management Planincluding:● North York Moors Local Development Framework● Recreation and Access Strategy● Communications Strategy● Biodiversity Action Plan● Education StrategyThis Management Plan identifies new strategies and planswhich will be prepared over its lifetime. Some existing plansand strategies will be reviewed or replaced over the lifetimeof the Plan.The Management Plan therefore interacts with a range ofpartners’ plans and strategies to help achieve its aims. Theseare supplemented by bilateral agreements and protocols ondelivery which relate to specific outcomes.2 The Natural Choice: Securing the Value of Nature (DEFRA, 2011)10 www.northyorkmoors.org.uk
