Conclusion
Defra told us that the Nature Restoration Fund is an innovative solution which will unblock developments and also deliver better outcomes for nature.72 It explained that the Fund will allow it to take a wider view of actions it can take to restore nature, rather than the current site-specific solutions which may not benefit the economy or nature as well as they could. Defra told us this approach will be faster and more certain for developers, and the pooling of money from developments allow it to do more ambitious restoration or protection of the environment.73
