Recommendation 15

15 Paragraph: 41

Clarify and resolve the conservation translocation licensing regime inconsistencies.

Recommendation
There is little support for the current conservation translocation licensing regime: on the one hand some stakeholders said that it is too bureaucratic, and, on the other we heard that the existing system is not stringent enough. As a priority, the England Species Reintroductions Taskforce should seek to clarify and resolve this situation. The Government should clarify its position on reintroduction licensing.
