Given Warwick District Councils Biodiversity Action Program to halt loss in the district, a greater than 10% BNG figure should be used, in line with an increasing number of Local Authorities demanding higher than 10%. A higher percentage will balance out developments, for which offsetting is sought outside the district, although the council should adopt a policy where biodiversity net gain is met purely within the district. Development density should be balanced against biodiversity improvements, large developments should not have the excuse that they cant meet BNG targets onsite, if the reason for this is they are maximising development instead.
