Given the pace of biodiversity loss, the policy should require that site surveys have been made within the last five years.
The policy should not only consider species that are present, but also the overall habitat. On occasion sites will support a range of individual species that are not of individual significance, but overall have high biodiversity. Brownfield sites are typical in this regard.
