Select Committee on Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Fifth Special Report


Report on Implementation

Recommendation of the Select Committee

12. We recommend that the Department publish an annual report which sets out progress to date on the implementation of the Act and a timetable for work still to be carried out (paragraph 36).

Government and Agency response

The Government and the Agency already publish a range of information on implementation of the Act on their web sites. However, we assume that the Committee wishes us to publish a single report on progress in implementing access to open countryside and registered common land and the rights of way provisions in the Act. We will arrange for such a report to be placed on both web sites as soon as possible.
