The Isle of Wight Biodiversity Action Plan

The BAP is made up of a series of documents produced from 2000 to 2005. These are divided into Habitat Action Plans and Species Action Plans. The HAPs comprise the body of the plan at present, as most significant species are already dealt with in the relevant HAPs and/or covered by a national SAP.
