Regulation 18 draft Local Plan
Policy EN3 - Biodiversity Net Gain
Representation ID: 4637
Received: 05/12/2023
Respondent: Whissendine Parish Council
Whissendine Parish Council was pleased to see a high on-site target for biodiversity.
Support noted. However, Since the Reg 18 Plan was published Government guidance set out in the PPG on BNG has been updated. Comment noted. Change from 15% to 10% as a higher percentage than the statutory objective of biodiversity net gain needs to be evidenced. In order for the Local Plan to be deemed sound this uplift above the mandatory level must be robustly evidenced.
