GB Red List dataset

This file details the information of “taxa” in Great Britain that have been undergone an IUCN Red List assessment for Great Britain (GB).

JNCC collates information on taxa that have been assessed, quality assured, and published in a Statutory Nature Conservation Body approved GB IUCN Red Lists. GB Red lists cover England, Scotland, and Wales – they do not cover Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands. For further information on GB red listing, please visit the [Red Lists in Great Britain webpage](https://jncc.gov.uk/our-work/red-lists-in-great-britain/).

Due to the efforts of our Red List partners, national GB Red Lists have been completed for multiple species groups. Key data from these Red Lists can be found in this resource. GB red listing Data can also be found in the following:

* The JNCC [GB Red List Dashboard](https://jncc.gov.uk/our-work/gb-red-list-dashboard) (in trial period).
* The [JNCC spreadsheet of species conservation designations](https://jncc.gov.uk/our-work/conservation-designations-for-uk-taxa/). 
* As publications: on [JNCC's Resource Hub](https://jncc.gov.uk/resources/) (if published by JNCC), in academic journals, or on the relevant country nature conservation body (CNCB), specialist society, or NGO websites.

JNCC red listing resources are updated every 6 months, reflecting the frequency of GB Red List publication. The most recent update to this dataset was in June 2026. There may be GB Red Lists published in between updates that will not be captured until the next update. A list of recent and upcoming updates can be found on the [Red lists in Great Britain webpage](https://jncc.gov.uk/our-work/red-lists-in-great-britain/). 

If you have any feedback on the dataset and dashboard, please let us know by completing the [GB Red List Dashboard feedback form](https://forms.cloud.microsoft/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=6ORORP2yHUmMMYsFCDcKa6K3Sl8Mx9NArYQz5p3R4NJUOENNNDlRT0RRT1dZUEc0Rkg5VzFPS1RCWS4u&route=shorturl).

Note that the generic term "taxa" is in this context a more strictly accurate term than "species" because some of the listed entities are ranked as being either above or below the "species" level.

Concentrations of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in sparrowhawk (Accipiter nisus) eggs in the UK

Data on long term trends in Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in sparrowhawk (Accipiter nisus) eggs. Samples were selected from the Predatory Bird Monitoring Scheme (PBMS) Archive. Failed or abandoned sparrowhawk eggs were taken from nests by licensed egg collectors and archived as part of the monitoring activities of the PBMS in the UK. The period studied was 1985 to 2007. Data are presented in three tables including detected PBDEs, interpolated PBDEs and sample properties which are described in a metadata file. The Predatory Bird Monitoring Scheme (PBMS) is a long-term, national monitoring scheme that quantifies the concentrations of contaminants in the livers and eggs of selected species of predatory and fish-eating birds in Britain. Full details about this dataset can be found at https://doi.org/10.5285/5fdccbe5-066b-4130-8431-d6389c31cea2

DPIA (Data Privacy Impact Assessments)

A data protection impact assessment (DPIA) is a process to identify privacy risks to individuals in the collection, use, storing, and disclosure of information. This allows Camden to identify problems so that risks can be removed or reduced to acceptable levels. It also reduces privacy breaches and complaints which can damage the Council’s reputation or enforcement action against it by the Information Commissioner (the regulator).
We publish these as a dataset in accordance with the Council's Data Charter and also the GDPR/Data Protection Act 2018.

Organogram of staff roles and salaries

Organogram (organisation chart) showing all staff roles. Names and salaries are also listed for senior civil servants.

Organogram data is released by all central government departments and their agencies since 2010. Snapshots for 31 March and 30 September are published by 6 June and 6 December each year. The published data is validated and released in CSV format and under Open Government Licence (OGL) for reuse.

Not all staff are listed within a Senior Civil Service (SCS1) deputy director led team. These staff are listed on the final row of the transparency return. Staff may not have an allocated SCS1 team lead due to a number of reasons, which could include the deputy director post being vacant, the member of staff being new, their record being processed, and so on.
 
Additionally, some staff have a nil salary due to being in unpaid positions or being 'free loans' from other government departments.

International Waste Shipments exported from England

Records of International shipments permitted under the Transfrontier Shipment of Waste Regulations 2007. Shipments into or out of the UK qualify as International Waste Shipments. They are registered to the country where the producer or receiver is registered, regardless of the exit or entrance point from/to the UK. The Environment Agency holds details of producers and receivers registered in England. This dataset initially covers Refuse Derived Fuel, with other waste types being added over time. Refuse-derived fuel (RDF) is waste typically from the mechanical treatment of waste (for example sorting, crushing, compacting, pelletising, etc). RDF consists largely of combustible components of both municipal and commercial industrial waste, such as plastics and biodegradable waste. Shipments are recorded in four groups; Waste leaving the UK, Waste arriving in another country from the UK, Waste leaving another country destined for the UK, and Waste arriving in the UK from another country.
• Waste exported from England, permitted under the Transfrontier Shipment of Waste Regulations 2007.
• Waste received from England, permitted under the Transfrontier Shipment of Waste Regulations 2007.
• Waste imported from England, permitted under the Transfrontier Shipment of Waste Regulations 2007.
• Waste received in England, permitted under the Transfrontier Shipment of Waste Regulations 2007.
Permit holders give indicative figures for how much waste they wish to have approved for import/export. They are not forecasts or projections.
• Indicative amounts of waste anticipated for export, permitted under the Transfrontier Shipment of Waste Regulations 2007. These are broad approvals. They give an inaccurate overestimate of actual exports. 
• Indicative amounts of waste anticipated for import, permitted under the Transfrontier Shipment of Waste Regulations 2007. These are broad approvals. They give an inaccurate overestimate of actual imports. Attribution statement: © Environment Agency copyright and/or database right 2024. All rights reserved.

Persistent organic pollutants and mercury in merlin and golden eagle eggs [PBMS]

This dataset contains concentrations of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) and mercury (Hg) in merlin and golden eagle egg contents collected as part of the Predatory Bird Monitoring Scheme (PBMS). In addition to residue data, for each record the year and region in which the egg was collected, and the egg shell index are recorded. The PBMS is a long-term, national monitoring scheme that quantifies the concentrations of contaminants in the livers and eggs of selected species of predatory and fish-eating birds in Britain. Levels of contaminants are monitored to determine variations between species and regions, changes over time and effects on individual birds and their populations. The Scheme is currently funded by CEH, Natural England, the Environment Agency (EA) and the Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use (CRRU). Full details about this dataset can be found at https://doi.org/10.5285/ad38a087-01a3-4865-b07c-a088ffb65916

Flood Model Locations

Flood Model Locations is a GIS layer which shows the location of detailed flood models owned by the Environment Agency. Each individual Flood Model Location contains a consistent list of information about the model. 

The absence of coverage by Flood Model Locations for an area does not mean that no modelling has been undertaken. 

The Flood Model Locations include flood models representing flooding from rivers and seas. Other sources of flooding are not included. 

The flood model files or outputs from the flood models are not available within this dataset.

Flood Map for Planning – Surface Water Spatial Planning Depths – Climate Change

The Flood Map for Planning Service includes several layers of information. This includes Surface Water Spatial Planning Depths. These datasets show the extent of land at risk of flooding from surface water to a defined depth band for a defined annual exceedance probability (AEP), or chance of flooding each year.

These datasets include the following probability scenarios:

●	0.1% AEP (1 in 1000) 
●	1% AEP (1 in 100)
●	3.3% AEP (1 in 30)

And the following depth bands:

●	Up to 150mm
●	150 – 300mm
●	300 – 600mm
●	600 – 900mm
●	900 – 1200mm
●	1200 – 2300mm
●	Over 2300mm

Climate change scenarios have been produced to indicate the predicted impacts of climate change on future flood risk. The climate change allowances are based on the latest UK Climate Projections (UKCP18) from the Met Office, using the Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 8.5.

The ‘Upper End’ for the 2070s epoch (2061-2125) has been used for the climate change scenarios.  We have chosen long-term epochs appropriate to support long-term planning and development decisions.

These datasets are designed to only give an indication of flood risk to an area of land and are not suitable for showing whether an individual property is at risk of flooding. This is because we cannot know all the details about each property.

Users of these datasets should always check they are suitable for the intended use. Attribution statement: © Environment Agency copyright and/or database right 2025. All rights reserved.

Benthic Sediment Chemistry Analysis Ready Data (NCEA)

The Natural Capital Ecosystem Assessment (NCEA) Benthic Sediment Chemistry network provides evidence on chemicals in estuarine and coastal sediments. This dataset contains the results of chemical analyses of sediment samples collected from English waters between 01 April 2023 to 31 March 2025. Supporting data, such as sampling locations and determinands analysed, are available within the dataset. When fully implemented, the NCEA Benthic Sediment Chemistry network will provide evidence on the chemical status of benthic sediments in English waters. This will enable the assessment of ongoing changes and impacts of chemical pressures on our water environment, informing smarter, more sustainable water management.

The NCEA Benthic Sediment Chemistry network is a project supported by the UK Government through Defra's NCEA programme. The NCEA is Defra's largest research and development (R&D) programme. It will produce a baseline of our natural assets by 2029; enabling a natural capital approach to policy and decision-making.

2024 Waste Data Interrogator

Three resources are available on this record for 2024: - an excel data extract of wastes received at permitted sites - an excel data extract of waste removed from permitted sites - summary tables for England and the former planning regions (in open document spreadsheet format) We no longer publish the Waste Data Interrogator in MS Access. All operators of regulated waste management facilities have to provide us with details of the quantities and types of waste they deal with i.e. waste received into site and waste sent on from site to other facilities or processes. This data is used to monitor compliance but has historically been used by DEFRA and local authorities to assist in planning for new waste facilities and for monitoring against statutory targets. We have provided this data in an interrogatable format since 2006. The dataset is calendar year and holds the data from around 6,000 regulated sites. Operator waste returns are public register information unless a claim for commercial confidentiality has been accepted. In these cases the data is provided but the site details are not. This is so that the data can be included in aggregated figures but cannot be attributed to a particular site. Data supplied does not include details of waste producers.

INFORMATION WARNING Details of operators who have claimed commercial confidentiality are not provided.
