Protecting the countryside and natural resource protection
Creating a robust policy framework and evidence base in order to promote the sustainable use and enhancement of the country’s natural heritage and ecosystems.
Outcomes we aim to achieve:
- Protect and enhance the natural environment, now and for future generations, and establish a robust framework for future development decisions that respect environmental constraints
- More and better access to the natural environment, especially for those who find it difficult to enjoy the health and well-being benefits which access to nature can bring
- Good water quality and a good water environment, with a sustainable balance between water supply and demand
