No. Warwickshire Wildlife Trust is not satisfied with the councils’ intention to ‘explore opportunities’ for higher than the bare minimum of 10% Biodiversity Net Gain.

Local evidence through planning applications shows that more than 10% BNG is achievable in Warwickshire, and the Plan states that they are aiming to link with local priorities, so a greater target should be delivered. A number of other Councils such as Cornwall Council have already got plans through Examination with 20% net gain

I don't believe this to be the answer to dealing with increased carbon emissions. The correct way to address this is with improved public transport links and use of rail station links to actually reduce emissions.

These ambitions need space. Space is at a premium, so obviously there is a danger that there may be a wide range of habitat, it will not allow increases in populations due to lack of provision area in each.

The Council should not set a higher environmental target than those already set out by government, the Building Regulations and those set out in the Environment Act 2021. This includes ensuring that the Council does not require BNG above 10%. Any environmental target beyond the current legislation would need to be fully evidenced and justified and ensure it meets the requirements of paragraph 58 of the NPPF and in particular ensure that any requirement is ‘fairly and reasonably related in scale and kind to the development’.

No. It is unclear how this will deliver wider connecting corridors which are more substantial than the proposed small scale on-site improvements. The councils should update their Green/Blue Infrastructure evidence base, in line with the NPPF and in time to influence chosen housing sites in the Local Plan.

We agree with all these policy directions but they tend to be the last things that developers do and are either not done well or not at all so implementation needs to be monitored and the planning authority must ensure compliance. Planning approval should include penalties if developers do not do what they say they are going to do.

I do not agree with this policy because carbon sequestration is not a true solution to rising emissions. Instead of offsetting pollution, we should focus on reducing it at the source. The best way to achieve this is by improving public transport links, including new railway stations that serve more local areas. Expanding sustainable transport options will lower car dependency, directly cutting emissions rather than relying on ineffective carbon capture methods. A real commitment to reducing carbon should prioritize practical solutions like better public transit, not just theoretical offsets.

I disagree with this policy because carbon sequestration is not a genuine solution to rising emissions. Rather than offsetting pollution, efforts should focus on reducing it at the source. The most effective way to achieve this is by investing in public transport, including new railway stations that serve more local areas. Expanding sustainable transport options will decrease car dependency and directly cut emissions, making a greater impact than unreliable carbon capture methods.

Yes. This emerging policy feels like work in early progress. Research needs to be done on other authorities that have introduced similar policies. It will be important to avoid overlap with DPD 38 (BNG) so as not to increase the burden on developers through duplication. A clear definition of how ENG goes above and beyond BNG is important as is how ENG will be measured.

Work being done on the Local Nature Recovery Strategy hasn't been integrated into this I believe.
The Local Plan includes new settlements and land for large-scale housing and employment next to and on important Local Wildlife Sites, and existing Green Belt land. These areas act as vital refuges for wildlife in a landscape which is fragmented by roads, housing, and development. Any developments must work with nature to deliver positive outcomes for wildlife and people. House building targets in the plan have been grossly exaggerated, putting additional pressure on important wildlife sites.
