Baroness Hayman of Ullock (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 23 June 2026

Debate

Legal Protections for Ancient Trees

Contribution

The noble Baroness is right that the shade provided by trees is important, not just for human health but for animal health, for livestock and so on. As I mentioned in my Answer to the noble Baroness’s Question, we are looking at the tree action plan, which we will publish by the end of the year, and I will ensure that the concerns around climate change and increasing temperatures are looked at as part of that.
