Natural England worked with Defra and English Heritage to produce a first framework for implementating the ELC in England, published in October  2007. This has since been reviewed and a revised version has been drawn up in 2009. The framework seeks to further strengthen the protection, management and planning of landscape in England by providing a structure for Action Plans of partners and stakeholders. It underpins a wide range of activities which, through public engagement and stakeholder involvement, will lead to wider understanding and appreciation, improved knowledge and care, as well as a sense of inspiration, well-being and connection between people and place.
