Subject to Paragraph 14(2) of Schedule 7A TCPA 1990 The biodiversity gain plan must include: (a) information about the steps taken or to be taken to minimise the adverse effect of the development on the biodiversity of the onsite habitat and any other habitat; (b) the pre-development biodiversity value of the onsite habitat; (c) the post-development biodiversity value of the onsite habitat; Advice about how to prepare a Biodiversity Gain Plan and a template can be found at https://www.gov.uk/guidance/submit-a-biodiversity-gain-plan |
