In planning the Habitats Regulations are usually seen as a major stumbling block. In this webinar we will take a look at how strategic solutions can help to unblock new developments, whilst not damaging the most highly protected nature sites. We will also take a forward look at changes to the Regulations that may be brought in as a result of the ‘Brexit Freedoms Bill’.
  • Introduction to the Habitat Regulations and the way forward - Richard Broadbent, Director at Freeths
  • Water Neutrality - Riki Therivel, Director of Levett-Therivel
  • Strategic mitigation, delivery and operation - Neil Harris, Habitat Regulations Delivery Manager at East Devon District Council
