The ALGG SPG document is guidance that is supplementary to London Plan policies. While it does not have the same formal development plan status as these policies, it has been formally adopted by the Mayor as supplementary guidance under his powers under the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (as amended). Adoption followed a period of public consultation, and a summary of the comments received and the responses of the Mayor to those comments is available on the Greater London Authority website. It will therefore be a material consideration in drawing up development plan documents and in taking planning decisions. The All London Green Grid SPG was developed in parallel with the area frameworks it can be found at the following link: http://www.london.gov.uk/publication/all-london- green-grid-spg .

    Agenda Item No. Reference No. Better Local Government ISLEWORTH AND BRENTFORD AREA COMMITTEE (PLANNING) - 5TH JUNE 2003 DECLARATION OF LOCAL NATURE RESERVE: ISLEWORTH AIT – CONSULTATION Report by: ASSISTANT CHIEF EXECUTIVE CORPORATE POLICY AND REGENERATION Summary The Council has the power to declare statutory Local Nature Reserves and has already exercised this for nine wildlife sites in the Borough. This report proposes to consult the relevant organisations on the designation of a further important wildlife site, Isleworth Ait, situated along the River Thames. The designation of this area would demonstrate the Council’s continued support and promotion of the Boroughs biodiversity, confirm the importance of this wildlife site and will help in efforts to secure management funds from other sources. This report requests this Committee’s views on the proposal to go ahead with the consultation process of declaring this site a statutory Local Nature Reserve. 1.0 RECOMMENDATIONS THAT MEMBERS: 1.1 NOTE THE CONTENTS OF THE REPORT 1.2 APPROVE THE RECOMMENDATION TO CONSULT 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 Under Section 21 of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, local authorities have the power to select, declare and manage nature reserves in consultation with English Nature (EN), the statutory advisor to the Government on nature conservation in England. 2.2 Nine statutory Local Nature Reserves (LNRs) have already been declared in the Borough (see Appendix 1), representing some of the most important nature conservation locations in the area. 2.3 The value in declaring wildlife sites as LNRs lies in the public recognition that these sites are afforded by the Council declaration and the opportunities to attract further funding for site management, through, for example grant aid from EN.
