## Summary

The Bradford Metropolitan District Council has issued a tender for the project titled "Bradford Local Plan Habitat Regulations Assessment (HRA) and South Pennine Moors DPD & Mitigation Strategy," which falls under the architectural, construction, engineering, and inspection services industry. The procurement is currently in the active tender stage, with a deadline for submission set for 3 April 2019. The contract is valued at £40,000 and is expected to commence on 8 April 2019, lasting until 8 April 2020. The relevant services will be delivered in the Yorkshire and the Humber region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in environmental consulting, engineering, and research services, particularly those that are small and medium enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Firms with expertise in conducting habitat regulations assessments and mitigation strategies will find themselves well-positioned to compete for this contract. Engaging with this project could enhance their portfolio, demonstrate compliance with legal requirements in habitat assessments, and establish ongoing relationships with local government bodies.

## Notice

The purpose of the HRA is to ascertain whether the proposals and policies within the Local Plan would be likely to result in significant effects on the qualifying features of European Sites of nature conservation importance within and adjacent to the District, and where such effects are predicted, whether they would result in adverse effects on site integrity following mitigation. The requirement to undertake HRA of development plans was confirmed by the amendments to the Habitats Regulations published for England and Wales in July 2007 and updated in 2010 and again in 2012 and 2017 . Therefore, when preparing the Local Plan, Bradford Council is required by law to carry out a Habitats Regulations Assessment.
