Scottish Land Commission

Land matters because we all use and need it. The benefits of land should be spread fairly to deliver a just transition to net zero.

Nature markets offer an opportunity to ensure our land is owned, used and managed in a fair and responsible way.

Through our membership of the NFCA we aim to promote good practice in responsible land management and support the development of high-integrity, values-led investment in natural capital that aligns with the Interim Principles for Responsible Investment in Natural Capital.

The Scottish Land Commission is a non-departmental public body responsible for progressing land reform. We stimulate fresh thinking, supporting change on the ground, and make recommendations for legislative and policy change.
