Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what steps she is taking to protect nature.

We have already announced a legally binding target to halt nature’s decline by 2030. We have an extensive policy programme, including environmental land management schemes, biodiversity net gain, woodlands for water, and more.

We have established over 360,000 acres of new habitat, helping to ensure we leave the environment in a better state than we found it.
