Decision details

Withdrawal of the Nitrogen Reduction in Poole Harbour Supplementary Planning Document for mitigation delivery.

Decision

That the Nitrogen Reduction in Poole Harbour Supplementary Planning Document be withdrawn.

Reason for the decision

Since Natural England updated their advice on nutrient neutrality in March 2022, the Nitrogen Reduction in Poole Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) was no longer considered to offer a robust mechanism for delivering nitrogen mitigation in the Poole Harbour catchment. The SPD therefore needed to be formally withdrawn to enable an alternative approach for delivering nitrogen mitigation within the Poole Harbour catchment.
