The Templeton Training Area Byelaws 2016

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Byelaws)

These Byelaws regulate an area of land known as the Templeton Training Area, near Templeton in Pembrokeshire.

Byelaw 3 regulates entry to and use of the area. Under byelaws 3(1) and (2) public access is permitted when the area is not being used for military purposes. However, under byelaw 3(4) there are a number of activities that are not permitted, for example, driving a motor vehicle. A breach of byelaw 3(2) or 3(4) is an offence.

Under byelaw 4, certain people are exempted from byelaws 3(2) and 3(4), including those authorised to use the area for military purposes (under byelaw 4(1)) and persons acting in accordance with a written permission from the appointed person (under byelaw 4(2)(a)). Any person seeking permission under byelaw 4(2)(a) should apply in writing to: the Appointed Person for Templeton Training Area, Penally Training Camp, Penally, Tenby, SA70 7QL.

Under byelaw 5, these Byelaws do not affect certain private rights of way or the public rights of way that cross the area.

Under byelaw 6, a constable and certain other persons may, in order to prevent an offence under byelaw 3(2) or 3(4), direct a person to leave the area or to remove anything over which he or she has control. A direction to leave the area may include a requirement for the person not to return to the area before a specified period (of not more than 28 day) has expired. It is an offence under byelaw 6(6) to fail to comply with a direction to leave.

In certain circumstances a constable or enforcement officer may under byelaw 7 remove a person from the area.
