BPF response to planning reform working paper on development and nature recovery

We welcome the proposed new approach and support any measures which simplify and speed up the development process whilst protecting and restoring nature. Developers who want to use existing approaches, however, should be able to “opt out” of the new arrangements. Consultation with the sector will be key, including consultation on the design of the new developer contribution.
