How will Brexit affect the great crested newt?

Listeners have a lot of questions about the European Union and the UK's referendum on whether to leave or remain.

PM asked the BBC's Europe correspondent Chris Morris and Assistant Political Editor Norman Smith to answer a selection.

Chris Morris answers Dave Bentley's EU question: The great crested newt is more common than the fox in the UK, yet it is a European Protected Species. Sites cannot be developed without jumping through expensive EU red tape hoops, which mean you have to try to catch every last newt. Will leaving the EU mean we can de-notify this species and arrange for a home-grown system for protecting ponds in the UK?
