7. You must obtain the prior written consent of the owner and occupier of any land upon which it is necessary for you to enter in order to construct, externally finish, decorate or in any other way carry out any works in connection with this development including future repairs/maintenance, or to obtain support from adjoining property.

9. Under the Section 1 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) it is an offence to kill or injure any wild bird, take, damage or destroy the nest of any wild bird while that nest is in use or being built. Therefore, any works affecting nesting birds on site must be done outside the nesting season, which is recognised to be from March to August inclusive, unless it can be demonstrated by a suitably qualified ecologist that nesting birds are absent through a Nesting Bird Check. It should be noted that birds may still be nesting outside this season, therefore care should be taken to ensure that no nesting birds are affected.
10. It is recommended that the applicant be informed that all British bat species are European Protected Species by virtue of their listing under Annex IV of EC Directive 92/43/EEC (‘The Habitats Directive’). This Directive has been transposed into British Law under the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017. British bats are also protected under Schedule 5 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act (1981) (as amended). It is a criminal offence to intentionally, or recklessly disturb, harm, or kill bats or to destroy a bat 'roost', even if only occasionally used. If bats are encountered on site works should stop immediately an NRW should be contacted (Natural Resources Wales, - General Enquiries: enquiries@naturalresourceswales.gov.uk or 0300 065 3000 Mon-Fri, 8am - 6pm) a licence may then need to be applied for from NRW. Licences are not automatically granted by virtue of a valid planning consent, and it may be possible that the necessary licence application may be refused.
