After the action plan is formally adopted, it  is good practice to maintain regular communication with the steering group,  perhaps including quarterly meetings to monitor progress on the implementation  of the measures and where necessary to identify and remedy potential hurdles.  Perhaps crucially, it is important that all  the relevant stakeholders remain engaged in the delivery of the plan and are  kept up to date on progress.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIn  order to ensure that local authorities are making progress on the  implementation of their action plan(s), the Scottish Government requires  authorities who have adopted an Action Plan to report the progress made with  regards to the Action Plan measures.

Paragraph 4.18  \u2013 4.21 of LAQM TG(16) highlights what should be included within this report.  The reporting of action plan progress should follow the structure and format of  the summary table included in the \u003Ca href=\u0022..\/assets\/documents\/APR_Template_Scotland_2016_v1.doc\u0022 rel=\u0022nofollow\u0022\u003EAnnual Progress Report template\u003C\/a\u003E (DOC).\u003C\/p\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n      \n  \u003C\/article\u003E\n","dialogOptions":{"dialogClass":"flowchart-modal-popup","width":"50%","modal":true,"title":"Implementation,  monitoring and evaluation of the action plan"}}]
