Tree preservation orders announcement


Recommended Posts

Thought that some would find this of interest.

 

No further info at this time, I'm afraid.

 

 

"On 6 July the Secretary of State announced that he intends to consult on streamlining the approach to tree protection, to reduce bureaucracy, reduce inconsistencies and make the system fairer. This coincides with the proposals to cut red tape announced today:

 

- Newsroom - Communities and Local Government

 

The aim is to consolidate the 1999 and 2008 tree preservation order regulations (SI 1999 No. 1892, SI 2008 No.2260, SI 2008 No.3202) governing the making and management of tree preservation orders, reducing the complexity of the model order and producing a unified system which will apply to all tree preservation orders, whenever they were or will be made.

 

It is unlikely that any new regulations will come into force until 2011.

 

Regards,

 

Peter Annett

In Melbourne they have a similar scheme where by permission must be sought for all works.....( Have you seen what they have done to some of their trees tho'? )I think it would be a backward step eh!

 

I posted recently that we apparently have the most sophisticated tree preservation laws of any country in europe...Me & my big "bouche!"
