National Parks – Why Planning?
Pembrokeshire Coast National Park is the Local Planning Authority for the National Park. Under the Town and Country Planning Act 2004 the Authority has a statutory responsibility to prepare a Local Development Plan (LDP). Our Plan was adopted in 2010 and it seeks to apply National Park Purposes and (see below) and duties in regard to land use planning and development.

National Park Purposes:
The Environment Act 1995 (as revised) sets out two statutory purposes for National Parks in England and Wales:
- Conserve and enhance the natural beauty, wildlife and cultural heritage
- Promote opportunities for the understanding and enjoyment of the special qualities of National Parks by the Public
In carrying out these purposes we are also have a duty to:
- Seek to foster the economic and social well being of local communities within the National Parks
