THE TELEGRAPH: Levelling-Up Secretary to scrap Brussels’ so-called ‘nutrient neutrality’ regulation, which is designed to limit harmful chemicals in rivers
Restrictive EU environment rules will be scrapped to enable 100,000 more homes to be built by 2030, Michael Gove has announced.
The Levelling-Up Secretary will scrap so-called “nutrient neutrality” rules imposed by Brussels, which the Government blames for blocking the provision of new homes, even where planning permission is granted.
