Meeting all the demands of LIFE
Article Abstract:
The European Union has set up a funding organisation called LIFE to administer grants for environmentally worthwhile development projects. Each grant can last for up to three years and is worth between 105,000 pounds sterling and 804,000 pounds sterling. It can be obtained through the submission of a successful bid from a national or local authority who are planning a new land-use development which includes progressive ideas that are environmentally aware.

Article Abstract:
UK planning activities will be impacted if the European Commission's proposed strategic environmental assessment becomes law as expected.

Strategic plans in a number of industries, including energy, water, telecommunications and tourism, would also be impacted.
