Planning and Infrastructure Bill
There's no time to lose - Act Now!
The Labour Party promised voters that they would protect and restore nature. But less than a year in, new planning changes are set to weaken environmental protections for developments, like housebuilding.
This is bad for wildlife and for people.

Thank you to everyone who has taken part in our campaigns to reduce the risks the Planning & Infrastructure Bill poses to nature.
Your voice makes a difference – we are making progress.
In response to huge pressure the Government amended the Bill to add some environmental safeguards in July. In October the Lords voted to add important protections for chalk streams to the Bill. Crucially, the Lords also voted to back amendment 130, which would prevent Part 3 of the Bill applying in areas where it could hurt wildlife.
MPs will be voting in November on whether to accept the Lords amendments.
This is our last chance to improve the Bill for nature.
Contact your MP to ask that they stand up for wildlife when voting on the Lords amendments.
We need homes for people, but destroying homes for wildlife isn’t the way to do it.
