Planning and Infrastructure Bill
It's not "nature or development". It's both.
The UK Government promised to protect and restore nature. But less than a year in, new planning changes are set to weaken environmental protections for developments, like housebuilding.
This is bad for wildlife and for people.
We have tried to work with Ministers to highlights gaps for nature in the new Planning and Infrastructure Bill. Yet at every stage our efforts have been ignored. Enough is enough.
We’re tired of hearing the blame for slow development being placed on wildlife when evidence shows this isn't true.
How you can help
Want development to work in harmony with nature? There’s no time to lose!
We’re demanding Ministers scrap Part Three of the Bill, which is the section that would weaken protections for wildlife. And you can help!
We’ve made it easy for you to email your MP, and we’ll copy in the Chancellor to every email. We want the Treasury to know that MPs are getting involved, and we want the Chancellor to hear from you too.
