Historic Scotland ((スコットランド・ゲール語:Alba Aosmhor)) was an executive agency of the Scottish Government, responsible for a number of the country's historic monuments. Under the terms of a Bill of the Scottish Parliament published on 3 March 2014 Historic Scotland would be dissolved and its functions undertaken by a new executive non-departmental public body to be called Historic Environment Scotland, which would also take over the functions of the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Historic Environment Scotland Bill )〕 This occurred on 1 October 2015.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About Historic Environment Scotland )〕 ==Role== As its website states: Historic Scotland is a successor organisation to the Ancient Monuments Division of the Ministry of Works and the Scottish Development Department. The agency's ''Framework Document'' sets out the responsibilities of the Scottish Ministers and the agency's Chief Executive.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Framework document 2012 )〕 Its Corporate Plan sets out its targets and performance against them.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Corporate plan )〕 Historic Scotland's role has not been without controversy. In 2002, proposals to restore Castle Tioram in the West Highlands, by putting a roof back on, were blocked by Historic Scotland, which favoured stabilising it as a ruin. This position was supported in an extensive local Public Inquiry at which the arguments for both sides were heard.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Inquiry Reports: Castle Tioram )〕 It has been implied that this dispute has led to a review of the operations of the organisation. Such disputes on the proper way to conserve a building are common, but are normally resolved within an academic context. After widespread consultation, Historic Scotland published a comprehensive series of Scottish Historic Environment Policy papers, consolidated into a single volume in October 2008.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Scottish Historic Environment Policy )〕 Historic Scotland and the Glasgow School of Art's Digital Design Studio have formed the Centre for Digital Documentation and Visualization to promote the documentation and 3D representation of heritage objects, architecture and environments with laser scanning and 3D visualization software.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=About the Scottish Ten )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Historic Scotland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
