Summary: Hampshire County Council plans to establish a Dynamic Market for the purchase of biodiversity net gain (BNG) units. These are habitat units registered with Natural England and made available for allocation by landowners or public bodies holding eligible units. The market is intended for public-sector buyers undertaking construction projects in England that need to purchase BNG units. It can be used by public authorities, private utilities, public undertakings and educational establishments across England. Hampshire County Council is setting up the arrangement, and public bodies may also participate as suppliers where they hold registered units. The activity is buying and selling registered biodiversity units, rather than construction or habitat-creation works themselves.
