read before the Society, 26 April 2018; Symposium: ?Where? will the Economy be in 2040? Delivering on the National Development Framework ; The National Planning Framework (NPF) was published by Government together with the National Development Plan, as ?Project Ireland 2040?, in February 2018. An explanation of how the National Planning Framework will be implemented, is assisted by setting out the overall context for planning in Ireland, as well as the spatial pattern of settlement in recent decades. It is in this context that the logic and intent of the NPF strategy and the necessary levers for implementation, become apparent.

The Irish Government is in the process of developing a National Planning Framework (NPF). This will replace the National Spatial Strategy for Ireland 2002-2020 (NSS). The NSS is generally considered to have been unsuccessful, mainly due to a lack of implementation driven by shortcomings in governance. This paper explores these shortcomings, and suggests ways to prevent similar difficulties with the NPF. The paper concludes that the political process needs to be at the heart of the preparation and adoption of the NPF. There is the danger that the NPF will fail if the political environment remains embedded in traditional approaches to planning across the state.

This helpful addition to the literature and thinking around planning and archaeology comes at an exciting time, as the Localism Act, streamlining of non-planning consents, economic recession and political change all converge. It is striking, in the review of archaeology and planning policy over some thirty years, what a revolution we have experienced in that time. When PPGs 16 and 15 were introduced in 1990s, they professed not to place any new responsibilities on local authorities, but in practice their implementation required a new zealousness, a significant new commitment and in many cases new skillsets among local authorities. Despite the challenges for even-handed implementation, it is to the enormous credit of authorities around the country that the PPG policies were implemented to the extent they were.

The National Assembly for Wales is engaged in the preparation of a national spatial planning framework to provide a context for sustainable development and environmental quality. This paper reports on research undertaken for the Assembly on the preparation of the spatial planning framework and identifies the initial stages in that process. The research itself draws upon a study of policy documents relevant to Wales, a comparative review of strategic spatial planning practices in the United Kingdom and mainland Europe, and the identification of the expectations of stakeholders for the framework. The paper illustrates how the concept of 'spatial planning' is being addressed and defined in the process of preparing the framework. The material provides an interesting insight into the emergent practice of spatial planning in the United Kingdom through a case study of Wales with wider relevance for spatial planning activity in Europe.

The purpose of this paper is to highlight some of the sources of concern that have arisen concerning the concept's intellectual underpinnings, and from there to suggest a means by which to apply a pragmatic application of the planning tool. By dispelling some of the fanciful notions surrounding the concept and questioning the appropriateness of calling it so in the first place, this paper places the "Effects Based Approach" in a larger comprehensive or whole of government approach to operations. From there, it will suggest an essential framework in which this planning tool can be applied usefully to the domestic and continental operating environment. In doing so, it places CF operations and their desired effects in the broader context of national security and the strategic or "Whole of Government" framework required therein.

Die Wirtschaftsplanung hat sich als wichtiger Mechanismus zur Kontrolle und Koordinierung der ökonomischen und sozialen Aktivitäten einer Nation erwiesen. Hierbei werden verfügbare Ressourcen zur Erreichung bestimmter Ziele eingesetzt. Der Zieldefinition muß die Bestimmung von Programmen und die Mobilisierung von Ressourcen folgen. Dabei sind eine Reihe von Faktoren zu beachten. In Nigeria sollen Richtlinien hierfür seit 1990 in jährlichen Intervallen erarbeitet werden. Die verschiedenen Wirtschaftspläne des Landes seit 1960 haben unterschiedliche Erfolge gezeitigt und waren aus mehreren Gründen wenig erfolgreich. Dies lag in erster Linie an ihrer hierarchischen Ausrichtung und der fehlenden Bevölkerungspartizipation. (DÜI-Wgm)
