Scottish Outdoor Access Code Article

The consultation period on the Scottish Outdoor Access Code has now closed and SNH will be considering all the comments sent in, including those from the Steering Team. SNH will then make a submission to Scottish Ministers who will consider it, and it will then have to be placed before the Scottish Parliament who will have to endorse the final version. After all this has been done, probably by next Spring 2004, the statutory rights of access accorded by the Land Reform (Scotland) Act will come into being.
