Yes, Defra will publish a Green Paper, which will look at how the regulatory framework can help drive the delivery of our new target to halt the decline of species abundance by 2030, before making decisions on the recommendations from the UK Joint Nature Conservation Committee's 7th Quinquennial Review.
