Bats are a European Protected Species that have protection under UK legislation, including the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 and the Habitats Regulations 1994. Because of their protected status it is an offence to kill, injure or disturb bats. Planning guidance now requires that new planning applications are submitted with adequate information on biodiversity and that methods are sought to identify ‘ways of building biodiversity into the design of new development.'
