Consultation description

We want to know what you think of the proposed change to the measurement used in reporting the condition of sites of special scientific interest (SSSIs) in England. The change will be a move from a unit or area-based assessment to one which measures the condition of a notified feature across the whole of the SSSI.

This change will bring England in line with the method used to monitor and report SSSI condition in the rest of the UK.
