What the notice says
Natural England self-service direct award.
Invasive non-native species (INNS) pose major threats to native biodiversity and ecosystem services and are identified as one of the most significant drivers of biodiversity loss worldwide, second only to habitat destruction. Marine INNS can be a threat to protected habitats and species impacting on the condition of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). Natural England has a responsibility to report on the condition of MPAs and as such has a requirement to improve our understanding of risks from INNS to their condition.
