EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend section 10(2) of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000 (c. 37) in relation to England.

Section 10(2) prescribes the time limits for when Natural England (as the appropriate countryside body in relation to England) is required to review a map issued in conclusive form under the Act showing registered common land and open country in England (excluding inner London). These Regulations change the timing of the first such review from not more than 15 years after the issue of the map to not more than 20 years.

An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sector is foreseen.
