Commons Bill [Lords]

I point out briefly to the Minister, and more particularly to his officials, that the amendments will be welcomed by Mrs. June Perry, who, on Sunday in Nottingham, will lead an annual walk around 130 acres of land, consisting of three miles-worth of public walks and five public paths that are allotted recreation land. The serious point is that Mrs. Perry could not understand why the land was not going to be registered under the Bill. She entered into correspondence, and the response from the Department’s officials has been extremely helpful. I am delighted, and it is clear that the new regulations, when they are ready, will enable Nottingham city council to register the land as common land. Once again, thanks—and hurrah!
