Environment Bill

Proceeding contribution from Caroline Lucas (Green Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 28 October 2019. It occurred during Debate on bills on Environment Bill.

The hon. Lady is making a powerful case. The Secretary of State talked a lot about how the Bill would put in place a long-term vision. Does she share my concern about what it says about biodiversity net gain? It says that the net gain sites are guaranteed for only 30 years. They could be ploughed up after 30 years. Does that reflect a long-term vision?
