Tories to pledge scrapping Environment Agency and Natural England
Original: Tories to pledge to scrap Environment Agency and Natural England
The Conservative Party is set to pledge the abolition of the Environment Agency and Natural England, the two main public bodies responsible for environmental regulation and nature protection in England. The proposal signals a sharp shift in the party's environmental policy, though details on which functions would be transferred or dropped remain limited ahead of the formal announcement.
Why now: The pledge is a major policy announcement affecting environmental regulation that is likely to provoke debate over its impact on nature protection and flood defences.
