House Builders Association Newsletter 2025 – Issue 21
An update on the case won by CG Fry on the Supreme Court's ruling on Habitat Regulations, which comes at the same time that nutrient neutrality is considered for Ramsar sites as part of the Planning and Infrastructure Bill. A House of Lords committee called for ministers to have more power over New Towns and the MHCLG’s Commons Select Committee reported on the role of land value capture in the 1.5 million homes target. And, we report on the Environment Agency's consultation opening on permits, which could make it easier for firms to claim on-site exemptions.
