Monitoring

The Management Plan will be monitored using the critical success factors that are set out in the delivery plan. Monitoring and reporting on the delivery plan will take place yearly. The National Park Authority will coordinate this with partners responsible for monitoring and reporting the areas they lead on.

The Management Plan will also be tracked by a series of high-level targets that relate to the eleven objectives in the plan. The targets are extensive and cover multiple features of the landscape, and the factors affecting them. Together, they show the condition of these features and factors, the pressures acting upon them and the provision of services or benefits they provide. They are a mixture of output, outcome and contextual based targets using the best available data for each objective. They reflect external pressures and factors in addition to the actual performance of the Management Plan.
