Overview
In order to assist local authorities in undertaking their Review and Assessment duties, a generic report template has been created, which should be used when submitting LAQM Reports.
The LAQM report templates for Scotland are available below. Reports should be submitted in line with the relevant report submission deadline. Local authorities should utilise these templates and when completed, submit them via the LAQM Portal to Defra and the Devolved Administrations for appraisal.
For local authorities in Scotland, the Diffusion Tube Data Entry System (DTDES) Template (v3.0) is also available for download.
