Under the Accountability for Regulator Impact Scheme regulators need to consult with business using a Business Engagement Assessment (BEA) on significant proposed changes to policy, process or practice.
Natural England has prepared a BEA for the proposed introduction of a single online application and reporting system for protected species licensing.
