Preferred Options Core Strategy and Policies Development Plan Document (DPD) Review

Representation ID: 25776

Received: 12/03/2019

Respondent: RSPB

Representation Summary:

We support the measures to enhance conditions for biodiversity.

The text relating to European (Natura 2000) sites under Sites of international and national importance does not correctly capture the step-wise process of the Habitats Regulations. The reference to 'in-combination effects' should remain (not marked as deleted); it is silent on the 'absence of alternative solutions' and should refer to compensatory measures that would be required should IROPI be concluded.

Paragraph 9.82 - line 2: Add Birds and Habitats Directive
line 10: Amend to 2017 (from 2010)
