Scotland’s Environment and Rural Services (SEARS) is a partnership between eight public bodies aiming to improve experience among Scotland's land managers by working together to provide an efficient and effective service.
SEARS launched as a partnership of nine organisations in 2008.[1] The Deer Commission for Scotland, which was formerly a member, was abolished and its functions transferred to Scottish Natural Heritage on 1 August 2010.
Among the key service improvements since SEARS got underway in June 2008 are annual savings of almost £150,000 to the sheep farming industry in annual groundwater licence charge waivers and around 2,200 less inspections for land managers.
