Steve Jackson-Matthews, Head of Ecology at LUC, will be delivering training on the principles of Ecological Clerk of Works (ECoW) to a wide audience over the next few weeks.

Firstly, Steve will be presenting a workshop to Marine Scotland with colleagues from the Association of Environmental and Ecological Clerks of Works (AEECoW), looking at how a structured approach to ECoW can benefit the off-shore construction industry.

Later in the month, Steve will be a guest speaker at the Scottish Planning Enforcement Forum, speaking to planning officials about the important role ECoWs play in delivering compliance with planning legislation and consents.

Then in May, Steve will speak at a SNH Sharing Good Practice event in Perth, focussing on post-application enforcement and monitoring.
