Ayrshire is comprised of the three unitary authorities of East, North and South Ayrshire, including a range of islands (Arran, Greater Cumbrae, Little Cumbrae and Ailsa Craig etc). It is a cohesive bio-geographical unit from an environmental perspective as it is bounded by the sea and by watersheds.

This updated Draft Ayrshire Biodiversity Action Plan sets out a shared agenda for conservation action by identifying those priorities that need, or would greatly benefit from, joint action, without which they might never be tackled.

Your comments on this Draft Action Plan and the Environmental Report would be appreciated.
