Cabinet received a report which explained that at its meeting on 9^th June 2021 the Environment and Community Panel established an Informal Working Group to look at Urban Wildlife.  This report presented the recommendations from the Group, which had been supported by the Environment and Community Panel, for the Cabinet to consider.

Cabinet was advised that given the fact the Biodiversity Task group had already been agreed, and there was a general drive to improve biodiversity, it was considered that the only feasible option was that the recommendations of the Group should be supported by Cabinet and taken forward. In addition, the new Biodiversity Task Group would be the ideal forum to discuss these recommendations from Environment and Community Panel.

Under standing order 34 Councillor de Whalley supported the recommendations.

Cabinet debated the report and recommendations and supported the proposals and commended the work done to date.
