An Economic Assessment of the Costs and Benefits of Natura 2000 Sites in Scotland |
| Description |
|
This study was commissioned by the Scottish Executive Environment and Rural Affairs
Department (SEERAD) in November 2002 to conduct a detailed assessment of the economic costs and benefits of the Scottish N2K sites. Equipped with such knowledge, it is hoped that attempts can then be made to improve the cost-effectiveness of managing these sites, in particular by enhancing the benefits that may accrue and minimizing the costs. |
