Government ‘hellbent’ on removing environmental protections
Moves by government to allow housing developers to sidestep rules around nutrient pollution in waterways have been condemned by legal and environmental experts. Ministers say the amendment to the Levelling Up Bill will dispense with “defective EU laws” around nutrient neutrality and unblock the building of 100,000 homes. But critics claim that far from simply “doing away with red tape”, the government is eroding environmental regulation designed to protect waterways and catchments.
