Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the proposal would fall within the de minimis exemption from the statutory biodiversity gain condition and, if not, whether suitable provision could be made for Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG)

What decided it

The statutory biodiversity gain condition would apply because the de minimis exemption was not satisfied, but suitable provision for BNG could be secured and was capable of delivery, allowing the appeal to proceed.
