The RSPB welcomes the inclusion of the following text in the Vision, recognising the need to connect, protect and enhance ecologically important areas and networks, and linking it with the Local Nature Recovery Strategy aims:

The countryside, coast and the urban open spaces are valued and benefit as joined up environmental assets in a resilient green and blue infrastructure network across land and water. Important wildlife and heritage assets are protected and enhanced, contributing to the Local Nature Recovery Strategy.

We welcome the Vision’s overarching aims to deliver enhanced biodiversity, in part by ensuring new development is in sustainable locations
