Respondent: Mary Pawson

We fully support a policy which protects, enhances, restores and expands biodiversity and geodiversity. We have a concern over existing flora and fauna being under threat from new development - especially on Green Belt. Compensation for loss of existing biodiversity and offsetting should [4.26.17] be a last resort. How do we qualify and quantify where we need to exercise this last resort? Compensation seems to be an easy approach for developers who might make large profits from Green Belt sites. How do we protect these sites now and in the future? Do we have examples of proposals for how compensation works well and produces good results for communities? How do we get properly independent assessments on impact of development? How do we decide and who decides that benefits of a development outweighs the importance of the biodiversity interest (G)? How will the council promote recommendations for household applications [4.26.12]?
