	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/01/2018 answer text <p>The Forestry Commission and Natural England produce the standing advice for planning applications that impact on ancient woodland. The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) does not specify the criteria, as the local authority is best placed to determine what the needs of their area are. The existing policies already provide a high bar, however this government remains committed to deliver the manifesto commitment to provide stronger protections for our ancient woodland. My Department are liaising with DEFRA, HMT and other stakeholders. The revised NPPF will be consulted on in the Spring.</p> answering member constituency Esher and Walton answering member printed Dominic Raab question first answered 15/01/2018 17:46:10 answering member 4007 label Biography information for Dominic Raab
