This decision, promoted by the Ministry of Ecological Transition and Energy, addresses the need to provide the autonomous community with its own updated and systematic regulatory tool. The objective is to develop state legislation on biodiversity and natural resources, adapting it to the specific characteristics of the Canarian territory.

Restarting the procedure allows for leveraging the technical and legal work already completed in previous phases, as well as the knowledge accumulated during its initial processing. However, the new text incorporates significant modifications to ensure its legal robustness and compliance with the current jurisdictional framework.

The revised draft bill has considered observations from the Consultative Council, which had pointed out deficiencies in regulatory technique, potential overlaps with basic state legislation, and risks of legal uncertainty. Following this analysis, a document has been prepared that enhances its coherence, improves its structure, and avoids regulatory duplications.

The future law will enable the Canary Islands to have, for the first time, its own regulation that integrates and organizes the set of planning, conservation, and management instruments for biodiversity, currently scattered across various provisions. Furthermore, it will adapt regulations to the unique characteristics of the island territory, known for its high biodiversity, high degree of endemism, and fragility of ecosystems.

Among its contents, the draft bill includes the protection of the marine environment and coastal ecosystems, in line with the competencies assumed by the autonomous community. It also integrates the various scientific knowledge and environmental monitoring systems existing in the Canary Islands, and establishes a common framework for planning, species and habitat conservation, and sustainable management of natural resources.

The text also regulates coordination mechanisms between public administrations, organizes intervention instruments, and strengthens tools for the conservation, restoration, and sustainable use of natural heritage. With this agreement, the draft bill once again begins its administrative processing, which will include relevant reports, consultations, and public participation phases before its final approval.
