Mr Mackay said: "I congratulate Perth & Kinross Council's Planning and Regeneration Service on its commendation at the Scottish Awards for Quality in Planning. This is the first year that I have had the pleasure of being involved in the awards, and I was struck by the high number of good quality applications, and the innovation and hard work that has clearly gone into these projects. Such good applications are a testament to the continued hard work of the profession, and how important it is for us to promote, highlight and celebrate success. Given the standard of the competition, Perth & Kinross Council’s commendation is all the more impressive, and I congratulate everyone involved."
