(2) Every register map is to be based on the Ordnance Map.

(3) A register map may consist of one or more sheets, and further sheets may be added from time to time as necessary.

(4) Where any sheet of a register map was compiled before 1st July 1968, the registration authority—

(a)may retain that sheet as, or as part of, the register map in its existing form until the first occasion on which that sheet is required to be amended; and

(b)must, on or before that occasion, prepare a fresh edition of that sheet which complies with this regulation.

(5) Where a register map consists of more than one sheet—

(a)each sheet must bear a distinguishing number; and

(b)the sheets must be bound together, but so that sheets can be added or removed without damage.

(a)there must be included an entry in accordance with Standard Entry 1; and

(b)that entry must be stamped by, and signed on behalf of, the registration authority.

(a)where the land to be described consists wholly or predominantly of moorland, must be on a scale of not less than 1:10,560 (six inches to one mile); and

(b)in all other cases, must be on a scale of not less than 1:2,500.

(9) If an existing register map is to be amended (other than by adding a new sheet), the amendment must be shown, if necessary by means of an inset map—

(a)if the land to which the amendment relates consists wholly or predominantly of moorland, on a scale of not less than 1:10,560 (six inches to one mile); and

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
