Trowers & Hamlins  has shared a useful explanation of the legal context of nutrient neutrality – what the Government was trying to do, what the concerns were over it, and where we can go next.

In this piece (click here) by Rory Stracey, Partner at Trowers & Hamlins, he explains how over recent years many planning applications in the UK have been put on hold because laws on Nutrient Neutrality prevent local authorities from granting consents where development would have an adverse impact on protected habitats.

This piece is a useful breakdown of the considerations and impacts on both the land and housing, and gives legislative history which sheds light on the current issue.
