Joint Nature Conservation Committee

The Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC) is the forum through which the four British country nature conservation agencies (Council for Nature Conservation and the Countryside, The Countryside Council for Wales, Natrual England and Scottish Natural Heritage) deliver their national and international responsibilities. These responsibilities include: sustaining and enriching biological diversity; enhancing geological features; and sustaining natural systems. JNCC's work is split into two broad categories, namely, advisory and project-based.
