Speaking in the House of Lords on 5 November 2024

Debate

Crown Estate Bill [HL]

Contribution

The decision to grant leases, as set out in Committee, is informed by advice from the relevant statutory nature conservation body, either via the statutory consent process or, where appropriate, direct engagement. It can include enhancement requirements. For those activities that are deemed exempt from statutory consents, the Crown Estate requires applicants to demonstrate that advice has been sought from relevant environmental bodies to inform their decision on leasing.
