Sustainable Management of
Natural Resources (SMNR)
Environment (Wales) Act
NRW’s general purpose - pursue the sustainable
management of natural resources:
NRW must
• Pursue sustainable management of natural resources in
relation to Wales, and
• Apply the principles of sustainable management of
natural resources in the exercise of its functions,
![Page 12: Rheoli Tir yn Gynaliadwy Sustainable Land Management...The 9 Principles of SMNR • Manage adaptively, by planning, monitoring, reviewing and, where appropriate, changing action. •](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052100/6039b15575447659d60389ea/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The 9 Principles of SMNR
• Manage adaptively, by planning, monitoring, reviewing and, where
appropriate, changing action.
• Consider the appropriate spatial scale for action
• Promote and engage in collaboration and co-operation
• Make appropriate arrangements for public participation in decision-making
• Take account of all relevant evidence and gather evidence in respect of
uncertainties
• Take account of the benefits and intrinsic value of natural resources and
ecosystems
• Take account of the short, medium and long term consequences of
actions;
• Take action to prevent significant damage to ecosystems;
• Take account of the resilience of ecosystems, in particular the following
aspects

Regulatory Principles
• Deliver outcomes
• Be intelligent
• Prepared to challenge
• Use the full range of tools available
• Be flexible
• Bring the right skills / expertise together
• Be efficient and effective
• Be clear on what we do and why
![Page 14: Rheoli Tir yn Gynaliadwy Sustainable Land Management...The 9 Principles of SMNR • Manage adaptively, by planning, monitoring, reviewing and, where appropriate, changing action. •](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052100/6039b15575447659d60389ea/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Setting Regulatory Principles in
the context of SMNR
• Regulation is more than the application of the law;
• Formal regulation (underpinned by the law) can contribute to
delivery of sustainable management of natural resources and well-
being, but the pressures on our natural environment show this is
not the whole solution;
• The solution is about doing something – intervening and regulating
actions and behaviours, and means doing things and looking at
problems differently;
• We need to understand the impact of our behaviours, as well as
understanding the behaviours of others; and
• We need to recognise our limitations and constraints, and value the
benefit of collaboration to deliver the wider objectives for Wales –
it’s not just about looking at what we, NRW, can do – it is what we,
Wales, can do

NRW’s Favoured Approach
▪ Voluntary actions,
▪ Advice, guidance, knowledge,
skills & experience development.
▪ Innovation
▪ Regulation
▪ Investment
