Biodiversity Net Gain

Section 11 of the SPD deals with Biodiversity Net Gain. The section refers to the Environment Bill. The Environment Act received Royal Assent on the 9th November 2021. A number of its provisions will be the subject of secondary legislation, including the provisions for biodiversity net gain. This section of the SPD needs to be updated to reflect the updated position following publication of the Environment Act. In making amendments to this section the Council should also review the wording of paragraph 11.6 as the current wording is not clear.
