Closed petition Prohibit removal or destruction of any wildlife and habitat from private land
Call for the Government to amend the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 to prohibit the removal or destruction of any wildlife and habitat from private land. A full ecological survey of any site should be carried out prior to work starting.
More details
This should close the existing loophole where a planning application is required before authorities check for existing wildlife. A full ecological survey of any site where potential developments are planned should be required.
I would hope this would prevent the destruction of wildlife and habitat before anyone knows what is there.
