INS307-12 Monitoring progress in expenditure towards biodiversity targets

Description

The overarching objective of this work is to provide the OEP with the capability to monitor the delivery expenditure of actions in the annual reporting period. The OEP intends to apply the outputs of this research to inform its reporting on Government's progress in delivering its Environmental Improvement Plan and achieving Environment Act 2021 targets. Our main focus in this particular project is on contribution to the Environment Act 2021 biodiversity, woodland and marine targets. A particular focus being the 2030 species abundance target and the long-term target to reverse the decline of species abundance. 

The outcome of the project will support the OEP's ongoing monitoring and assessment of government's progress with Environmental Improvement Plans in England.
