Dear Majid Mir,

Thank you for your consultation which was received by Natural England on 16 September 2025.

Based on the information provided, Natural England is satisfied that Condition 3 (CEMP) can be discharged.

If any of the conditions relate to protected species, please note the following:

We have not assessed this application and associated documents for impacts on protected species.

Natural England has produced standing advice https://www.gov.uk/protected-species-and-sites-how-to-review-planning-proposals to help planning authorities understand the impact of particular developments on protected species. We advise you to refer to this advice. Natural England will only provide bespoke advice on protected species where they form part of a Site of Special Scientific Interest or in exceptional circumstances.

Should the proposal be amended in a way which significantly affects its impact on the natural environment then, in accordance with Section 4 of the Natural Environment and Rural Communities Act 2006, Natural England should be consulted again. Before sending us any further consultations regarding this development, please assess whether the changes proposed will materially affect any of the advice we have previously offered.  If they are unlikely to do so, please do not re-consult us.

Kind regards,

Claire Rutherford

We are here to secure a healthy natural environment for people to enjoy, where wildlife is protected and England’s traditional landscapes are safeguarded for future generations.

Natural England offers two chargeable services – The Discretionary Advice Service (DAS) provides pre-application, pre-determination and post-consent advice on proposals to developers and consultants as well as pre-licensing species advice and pre-assent and consent advice.  The Pre-submission Screening Service (PSS) provides advice for protected species mitigation licence applications.

These services help applicants take appropriate account of environmental considerations at an early stage of project development, reduce uncertainty, reduce the risk of delay and added cost at a later stage, whilst securing good results for the natural environment.
