Sigma Strategic Land & Nitrate Neutrality

In June 2021, Clare Bartlett MRTPI PIEMA, Partner, took part in a Q&A with Sigma Strategic Land on the thorny issue of nitrate neutrality. Clare heads up the Batcheller Monkhouse Pulborough Planning team and is both a Chartered Town Planner, and a Practitioner in the Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment (IEMA) which forms a specialism in EIA co-ordination. With over 20 years experience in various planning consultancy roles including a London-based property consultancy, Clare joined Batcheller Monkhouse in 2016. Clare is currently advising clients on the nitrates issue, particularly in the Solent region, although the problem is much more widespread in England and includes phosphates as well.
