Summary/Abstract: Brexit changed the operation of legal forms of nature conservation including Natura 2000. The legal environment created by the application of the EU law and domestic caselaw concerned with the judicial review of decisions issued under article 6 of the Habitats Directive necessarily warrants the analysis of the latter both in terms of the general role of the doctrine of judicial precedent in the British legal system and specifically in the judicial review under the Habitats directive. Analysis of this area of law allow achieving the goal of identification of contentious issues originating from the caselaw. Furthermore, it will lead to conclusions concerning the operation of “Natura 2000” after Brexit i.e., an attempt to identify potential changes in its operation. What justifies such an analysis is the fact that British administrative law lacks a precise definition of the standard to be applied for judicial review which allows public authorities for such a discretion which should not be allowed under the EU law. Therefore, although the relevant provisions only slightly change Brexit may negatively impact the standard of environmental protection in the UK.
