NRW has just published a teaser for its eventual business plan in the form of some bi-lingual PowerPoint slides (attached below). This is the public body that has just shut down the CAL mine access scheme and quietly walked off the job of chairing/funding the two main cave management committees in Wales (i.e. OFD and Llangattock).
As you will see, there is no reference in it to NRW's statutory duties to promote the provision and improvement of opportunities for (a) access to and enjoyment of the countryside and open spaces; (b) open-air recreation; and (c) the study, understanding and enjoyment of the natural environment.
Its talk is more of social engineering, NRW's own carbon emissions, and re-wilding in the run up to 2030. The simplest way to achieve all of that is obviously to dispose of this organisation that seems bereft of vision to the point of inviting guidance from outsiders as to its actual purpose.
