New legal requirement: Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG)

Discover Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) in a new webinar series hosted by Angus Walker, planning partner at TLT.

The first three sessions were held in late 2025, please contact TLT Events if you would like the slides for those and/or a recording of any of them.  The fourth session will take place on 29 January 2026 and will cover the proposals to apply BNG to nationally significant infrastructure projects (NSIPs) consented via Development Consent Orders (DCOs) under the Planning Act 2008, proposed to become a legal obligation in May 2026.

No-one is better placed to present this webinar than Angus Walker, who has been immersed in both the DCO and BNG regimes since their respective inceptions. Join us for a concise, expert-led presentation on BNG for NSIPs – what it is and what you need to do to prepare for its introduction.  If you are involved in NSIPs this webinar is for you whether you are a developer, planner, ecologist or any other professional involved in this regime

We'll be covering...

• Brief recap of BNG
• How BNG has been applied to nationally significant infrastructure projects (NSIPs) so far
• How and when it is proposed to become mandatory for NSIPs
• How it may differ from how it applies in town and country planning
• What to do if you are planning to apply for a DCO
