The RAF Welford Byelaws 2010

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Byelaws)

Part II of the Military Lands Act 1892 (c.43) provides for the making of byelaws for regulating the use of land held for military purposes and securing the safety of the public. These byelaws regulate the land at RAF Welford.

The land subject to these byelaws, together the Protected Area and the Controlled Areas, comprise the land held under title numbers BK 408062, BK 232917, BK 199468 and BK 376137 that are registered at the Land Registry, Gloucester Office, Twyver House, Bruton Way, Gloucester GL1 1DQ.

A copy of these byelaws and a plan showing the Protected Area and Controlled Areas to which these byelaws apply may be inspected on the Ministry of Defence website http://www.mod.uk/DefenceIntranet/Microsite/DE/WhatWeDo/Byelaws/. Copies may also be inspected at the Great Shefford Village Shop and Post Office, The Mead, Great Shefford, Hungerford, Berks RG17 7DB; Newbury Central Library, The Wharf, Newbury, Berks RG14 5AU; Hungerford Library, Church Street, Hungerford RG27 0JG; Lambourn Library, High Street, Lambourn, Hungerford RG17 8XL and on signboards erected locally.

By virtue of section 17(2) of the Military Lands Act 1892, any person who commits an offence against any byelaw under this Act is liable on conviction before a court of summary jurisdiction to a fine not exceeding level 2 on the standard scale. At the time of printing the maximum fine payable is therefore five hundred pounds (£500).
