Prioritising action when more than one potential measure is mapped to the same location

In some locations, more than one potential measure is identified. This is to ensure that no opportunity for nature recovery is missed and that broad areas consider a range of habitats, to create the mosaic of habitats that nature recovery needs.

It is advised that professional advice is sought from a land advisor, nature conservation body or another appropriately qualified source.
