WCC supports this policy direction noting that the spatial offsetting hierarchy as laid out in the Green Infrastructure Annex A (to be consulted upon post LNRS discussion) has a finer nuance at each level relating to strategic areas, however, the broad approach is correct. It is also noted that a greater BNG percentage is being explored and would suggest that this is explored in context with the Environmental Net Gain policy direction 39. Should the ENG policy proceed at pace then the in combination affect of a BNG policy with Nature market compensation approaches will deliver wider environmental benefits greater than the BNG 10% statutory requirement.
