List of current UK actions

Habitat Actions

Upland oakwood
Provide advice on and promote the management of deer in areas where they are (or might become) major limitations on the regeneration and spread of upland oakwoods. (ACTION: ADAS, CCW, NE, FA, Red Deer Commission, SNH)

Species Actions

Apium repens (Creeping Marshwort)
Encourage landowners of former sites where this species could be re-established in Oxfordshire to enter into the Upper Thames Tributaries ESA Scheme (particularly the owners of the two sites which survived until the 1970s), and encourage appropriate management of these sites. (ACTION: ADAS, NE)
Lepus europaeus (Brown Hare)
Encourage the uptake of the new flexible set-aside scheme instead of rotational set aside, thereby allowing it to be left in place for two years and providing greater benefit to this species. (ACTION: ADAS, MAFF, SOAEFD, WOAD)
Weissia multicapsularis (Moss)
Ensure conservation bodies, landowners and managers are aware of the presence and importance of conserving this species, and appropriate methods of management. (ACTION: ADAS, CCW, NE, FA, LAs)
