England’s Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (Defra) has published new guidance for English commons registration authorities (the bodies who maintain the registers of common land and town and village greens) outlining changes to Sections 15A to 15C of the Commons Act 2006.
The guidance reflects a number of significant changes to the law on registering new town and village greens under the Commons Act 2006, made in April 2013 under the Growth and Infrastructure Act. It replaces the interim version published in May 2013.
