Planning: Sites of Special Scientific Interest
Asked by: Calum Miller (Liberal Democrat - Bicester and Woodstock) Monday 27th April 2026 Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government: To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what steps his Department is taking to ensure that the planning system provides adequate protection for sites of ecological value prior to designation as Sites of Special Scientific Interest. Answered by Matthew Pennycook - Minister of State (Housing, Communities and Local Government) The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and associated Planning Practice Guidance are material considerations in the planning process.
The NPPF makes clear that planning policies and decisions should contribute to and enhance the natural and local environment by protecting and enhancing sites of geological value and soils. It also stipulates that development proposals should ensure that a site is suitable for its proposed use, taking account of ground conditions and any risks arising from land instability and contamination.
Between 16 December 2025 and 10 March 2026, the government consulted on a new NPPF. The consultation on the revised Framework, which can be found on gov.uk here, included proposals in respect of sites of biodiversity value.
We are currently analysing the feedback received and will publish our response in due course. |

Cabinet Office: Vetting
Asked by: Calum Miller (Liberal Democrat - Bicester and Woodstock) Tuesday 28th April 2026 Question to the Cabinet Office: To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, without revealing personal information, how many applicants for Developed Vetting in 2025 were assessed as (a) clearance approved, (b) clearance approved with risk management, and (c) clearance denied or withdrawn. Answered by Dan Jarvis - Minister of State (Cabinet Office) National Security Vetting (NSV) clearance applications, including Developed Vetting, are rigorously assessed within a robust governance framework. UKSV works closely with departmental vetting risk owners to balance operational demands with assured and effective national security safeguards.
In line with the practice followed by successive administrations, the government does not otherwise comment on security matters. To reveal such details could prejudice national security and would provide insights into the scale and nature of the UK’s sensitive workforce and the thresholds of our security safeguards.

USA: State Visits
Asked by: Calum Miller (Liberal Democrat - Bicester and Woodstock) Tuesday 28th April 2026 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what is the estimated cost of her Department's planning for the state visit to the US in April 2026. Answered by Stephen Doughty - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) This historic State Visit will commemorate the 250th anniversary of the United States and will reaffirm the vital and enduring UK-US relationship that is central to our shared prosperity, security and history. The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office does not hold a central record of the requested data. Planning for State Visits is undertaken as part of staff's normal duties and is delivered largely through existing departmental resources. The information could therefore only be collated and verified for the purposes of answering this question at disproportionate cost. |

Sites of Special Scientific Interest
Asked by: Calum Miller (Liberal Democrat - Bicester and Woodstock) Tuesday 28th April 2026 Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, how many Sites of Special Scientific Interest have been designated in England in each of the last five years. Answered by Mary Creagh - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) designation is a two‑stage process. Sites are first notified, at which point they become legally protected. Notifications are then confirmed, usually within nine months, once any objections or representations have been considered.
For the purposes of this answer, “designated” is taken to mean confirmed SSSI notifications. On that basis, the number of SSSIs designated in England, by calendar year, is as follows:
Confirmation often takes place in a year following notification, so notified and confirmed figures do not necessarily relate to the same sites. |

Sites of Special Scientific Interest
Asked by: Calum Miller (Liberal Democrat - Bicester and Woodstock) Tuesday 28th April 2026 Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of the capacity of Natural England to identify and designate new Sites of Special Scientific Interest. Answered by Mary Creagh - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) Natural England (NE) receives an appropriate budget to carry out its duties and responsibilities in line with what is affordable and the priorities set out by the Secretary of State.
Restoring nature is one of our top priorities. Protected sites, including Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs), are the best existing areas for nature, where species can thrive and spread into the wider countryside, and they form the foundation of the Government’s commitment to protect 30% of land and sea by 2030.
NE is adapting its protected sites work programme. It will focus on prioritising actions to deliver the Environment Act interim target for SSSIs and aligning its work with the objectives of the Environmental Improvement Plan 2025. |
