Approval of Draft Local Nature Recovery Strategy

The Local Nature Recovery Strategy (LNRS) is a cross-cutting theme across several Cabinet Member portfolios and Services. The Liverpool City Region Combined Authority (LCRCA) are intending to approve a draft Local Nature Recovery Strategy for public consultation in winter 2024/5, and the final LNRS in spring 2025 in line with the government’s deadline. Sefton Council as a supporting authority should approve both the draft and final LNRS prior to their approval by the Combined Authority. The purpose of the report therefore will be to seek approval of the draft LNRS for submission to the LCRCA.
