Respondent: Woodland Trust

Representation Summary:

We support objectives 6 and 7 in particular, including the commitment to a net gain in biodiversity. However, net gain must include the protection of irreplaceable habitats such as ancient woodland and ancient or veteran trees.

We would like to see a commitment to planting new trees including street trees, and groups of trees and small woods as part of a network of natural greenspace.
