Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by the then Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs on 27 May (5327), what plans they have to legislate to repeal the cut-off date for the recording of historic rights of way.

Repealing the cut-off date will require primary legislation. As soon as an appropriate legislative vehicle has been identified we will use this to repeal the cut-off date.
