Countryside: Access
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, when the Government expects to publish the proposed Access to Nature Green Paper.
Answered by Mary Creagh
This Government committed in the 2025 Environmental Improvement Plan to bringing forward an Access to Nature Green Paper. This will provide an opportunity to explore options for improving and expanding access, test potential approaches, and gather robust evidence before any decisions are taken.
A timetable for publication has not yet been confirmed, but further updates will be provided in due course.
