The evidence used to calculate the target increase in canopy cover to at least 18% over the plan period should be published in the BCP. In new developments minimum contribution of canopy cover should be caveated to state that this will not be required if this would lead to damage or loss of existing habitats of value that may otherwise be retained. Replacement trees of a suitable species must be provided on site where planning permission has been granted that involves the removal.
