Steve Trotter new WTs Director talking at #CIEEMConf now. WTs also see #offsetting as needing to function at landscape scale.

#CIEEMconf 1. price shouldnt be the driver. 2. licence to destroy irreplaceable habitats? 3. after mitigation hierarchy not bypass it.

Graham Hutton from @LindenHomesSE talking to #CIEEMconf now, giving developers perspective. Lyons Review - asking how deliver 300k/yr homes
February 12, 2025 at 7:54 AM
Graham Hutton @LindenHomesSE denies land banking exists at #CIEEMConf. No link tween #offsetting and housing standards review.
February 12, 2025 at 7:54 AM
Graham Hutton @LindenHomesSE talks about protected sp licencing: link planning, licencing &offsetting to make a success of it #CIEEMconf
February 12, 2025 at 7:54 AM
Graham Hutton - BD & licencing is an invisible delay to developers - post planning permission. Can create year, 2 year delay. #CIEEMconf
February 12, 2025 at 7:54 AM
#CIEEMconf Graham Hutton - planning decision shd be licence to move to development, incorporate EPS licencing into planning process.
February 12, 2025 at 7:54 AM
#CIEEMConf Graham Hutton - developer right behind 3 tests set out in #offsetting green paper. Certainty of cost base is the key: long game.
February 12, 2025 at 7:49 AM
#CIEEMConf Graham Hutton - #offsetting shdnt be mandatory; will likely be smaller pot of £. If too little £, market will not come alive.
February 12, 2025 at 7:49 AM
#CIEEMConf - Graham Hutton Linden Homes - #EPS and other prot spp. must be included in #offsetting, otherwise won't work for developers.
February 12, 2025 at 7:49 AM
#CIEEMConf Graham Hutton from Linden Homes concludes - reform species licencing more important than #offsetting for developers.
