Labour’s planning bill could become ‘license to destroy’, nature campaigners warn
Houses under construction on a housing development
NATURE campaigners warned today that Labour’s Planning and Infrastructure Bill could become a “licence to destroy.”
Currently at committee stage, the Bill aims to streamline regulations for developers so they can speed up their projects.
But leaders of 32 nature organisations have written to the environment and housing secretaries, warning that the Bill will weaken environmental law and risk local species extinction as well as irreversible habitat loss.
