The ‘Biodiversity Net Gain’ regime is intended to increase biodiversity across the country. These rules require most new planning applications to complete a statutorily compliant ‘Biodiversity Gain Plan’ (BGP).

‍

These plans are mandated by law and include pre-development biodiversity scores calculated in line with Natural England's 'Biodiversity Metric', and set out how development will achieve a 10% increase in each biodiversity score.

‍

• There is particular concern for the estimated 35,000 small developers who will need to comply with these regulations.
• Estimates from independent experts suggest that traditional solutions will cost small developments around £2,000 per planning application.
