Kent Wildlife Trust has described the blocking of government plans to scrap “nutrient neutrality” rules as a “win for nature”, but vows to continue to fight for greater protection for our rivers. On Wednesday 14 September, MPs voted against the amendment to the Levelling Up and Regeneration Bill that would remove “nutrient neutrality” rules. Nutrient neutrality is a means of ensuring that a development plan or project does not add to existing nutrient burdens within catchments, so there is no net increase in nutrients as a result of the plan or project. In Kent, the amendment would have put further pressure on the River Stour, an area conservationists described as being flooded with nitrates and phosphates from various sources, housebuilding being just one of them.
