Natural England is to implement an innovative new approach to the conservation of great crested newts across the country.

The new approach has been piloted in partnership with Woking Borough Council in Surrey and will now start to be introduced across the country after its roll-out was announced in the Department for Communities and Local Government’s Housing White Paper.

This new 3 year programme will survey areas where newts are most prevalent, map the potential impacts of development and propose local conservation strategies for the species.
