A Living Wales – a new framework for our environment, our countryside and our seas

This consultation document set out our new approach to the way we manage our land, water and seas. It also showed what steps have already been taken in response to the failure to meet the 2010 biodiversity targets.

The document was designed to set a broad direction of travel for our future work. Your responses and suggestions to the consultation have directly informed this work.

The consultation was launched to gather your views and ideas and evidence of work that is helping nature in Wales.
