In the meantime, 14 out of 15 regions have established PROT. Not only does this mean double planning, but it calls into question prioritisation - i.e. which plan is given precedence for implementation in those cases where PROT and PRDU have both been approved. Given the similar aims of both planning documents and the weaknesses of the PRDU (a top-down development process with complex and long approval and amending processes and hence limited flexibility), it may be wise to redirect the focus of regional energies from developing a PRDU to developing and/or implementing the PROT.10 This could help address the problems of overlap as well as an inefficient use of scarce resources - financial, human and infrastructure.
