Abstract

This study investigated systems for the management and planning of national parks in England, using the Peak District National Park as an example. National parks in England are managed such as to integrate nature and landscape conservation, services to visitors and regional socioeconomic revitalization. Each national park establishes its own National Park Authority, with staff dedicated to park management. National Park Authority members, a majority of them are local, make fundamental decisions about park management. Because local governments are responsible for developing policies for national parks (other than land-use policies) and because more than 90% of the national park area is privately owned, it is difficult for National Park Authorities to manage parks by themselves. Thus they work with various entities, including local governments, NPOs and local residents. The legal basis of park management is the planning permission system established according to The Town and Country Planning Act. Each national park combines various resources and measures for implementing park management projects, and makes independent efforts to obtain subsidies or to make use of existing subsidization systems or other policies.
