Dataset description

This dataset lists conservation measures for habitats and species listed under the Habitats Directive. Every six years, all EU Member States are required (under Article 17 of the Directive) to report on the implementation of the EU Habitats Directive. The 3rd UK Habitats Directive Report was submitted to the European Commission in 2013. This report includes the need to report on Conservation measures in section 3.2 of the reporting form. For each habitat and species in each Country (England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and offshore), a list of conservation measures was identified. The measures identified represented activities undertaken primarily during the reporting period 2007-2012. They were selected from a standard list of codes/categories that was provided via the EC Reporting Guidelines (see Appendix 4). Each measure was assigned to one or more of the following types: * legal/statutory; * administrative; * contractual; * recurrent; * one-off. They were ranked as High, Medium or Low importance, based on the proportion of the target habitat benefiting from the measure. The geographic area (location) that each measure primarily impacted on was classed as either: * inside the SAC network; * outside the SAC network; * both inside and outside the SAC network. Finally, a broad evaluation was given to indicate the effectiveness of each measure in maintaining, enhancing or reaching favourable conservation status (FCS). This was based on the following categories: * maintain – used for measures that were required to maintain FCS; * enhance – used for measures that enhanced conservation status: * long-term – used for measures where a positive effect was expected only in the long-term; * no effect – used for ineffective measures or measures that need to be improved, had not delivered conservation benefits, had failed to achieve their objectives, or had adverse effects; * unknown effect – used for measures whose effect was unknown; * not evaluated – used for measures that not been evaluated
