This Bill would require the Secretary of State to start and progress the nomination of the UK’s chalk streams as a serial UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site. It sets out the steps needed for the nomination but does not guarantee UNESCO designation or provide funding. In short, it seeks formal international recognition of chalk streams’ ecological and cultural importance if the nomination succeeds.

The 2024-2026 session of Parliament has come to an end so the House of Commons is now prorogued until the next session begins on 13 May 2026. Prorogation is the formal end to the parliamentary year.
This Bill will therefore make no further progress.
No recorded votes for this bill yet.
