Draft Bradford District Local Plan - Preferred Options (Regulation 18) February 2021

Representation ID: 29189

Received: 24/03/2021

Respondent: Environment Agency

Representation Summary:

We support the current content of Policy EN2 – in particular the references to BNG and the use of the DEFRA Biodiversity Metric; and also the protection and strengthening of the Wildlife Habitat Network.

We would recommend that any policy referencing this includes the term ‘measureable net gain’ as per the wording in the revised NPPF2.
