Recommendation 32

32

Define government expectations and set measurable targets for nature recovery through nature markets.

Recommendation
The Government should clearly define its expectation for the level of nature recovery in England which is likely to be achieved through the operation of nature markets, and should set out the criteria against which progress will be evaluated. In doing so, the Government should set, and publish, a target for the growth of the UK’s natural capital as well as establishing milestones in pursuit of that target.
