Stop the Planning and Infrastructure Bill 2025 to Protect Nature
We think the Planning and Infrastructure Bill 2025 threatens irreplaceable habitats, weakens environmental protections, and ignores pressures on public services. We urge the Government to withdraw it to protect nature and our communities.

The government has no intention of withdrawing its landmark Planning and Infrastructure Bill, which is integral to unlocking sustained economic growth and will support nature recovery and restoration.

Background
We think the Planning and Infrastructure Bill 2025 would let developers destroy vital habitats by paying a levy, weakening protections for nature. Ancient ecosystems cannot be replaced. We think the Government should prioritise restoring empty homes, protecting green spaces, and investing in communities, not pushing through what we think is deregulated development that could harm people and the environment.
