Meeting Details

This aide-memoire provides an update on the work programme to improve Overseer, focusing on recent developments in planning the whole-model peer review process.
We see Overseer as a useful tool because of the flexibility it can provide to land users in meeting environmental challenges. However, Overseer has issues that need to be worked through to be able to confidently use it across a wider range of farming systems.

This briefing provides a recommended response from the Government to the Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment’s (PCE) report on Overseer and regulatory oversight, including a draft letter to publicly respond to the PCE (Appendix Two).
