Developing an agenda for plant conservation in Scotland – conclusions of the symposium

Introduction One of the planned outputs of the symposium was to identify major issues for plant conservation in Scotland. Such an emerging 'agenda' would reflect and be informed by the papers and the discussion by the wide constituencies of plant interest represented at the symposium and provide a basis for the first meeting of Plantlife LINK Scotland planned to be held in October 2002. The conclusions set out in this paper represent the author's understanding of the issues raised.
