Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations, which apply in relation to England only, amend the Access to the Countryside (Correction of Provisional and Conclusive Maps) (England) Regulations 2003 (“the principal Regulations”). The principal Regulations make provision for the Countryside Agency to correct maps issued in provisional and conclusive form under Part I of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000 (referred to in those Regulations as a “provisional map” and a “conclusive map” respectively).

These Regulations prescribe an additional set of circumstances in which a conclusive map may be corrected by the Countryside Agency. There is no longer a time limit for correcting a conclusive map. The time limit for correcting a provisional map under regulation 3(a) of the principal Regulations has been relaxed, so that the time limit of three months from the date of issue of the provisional map only applies where the correction consists of the showing of additional land on that map.

A full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as it has no impact on the costs of business.
