As does (my italics):
After all we've been repeatedly assured that landowners will accept CRoW in in relation to caving.
Quite ironic really given that Casterton is one the two fells where present arrangements seem to have jump started a process which is supposed to fix the shortcomings of the current system.
16. Should BCA prepare a statement on caving and CRoW (subsequent to any Natural England
advice) for issue to landowners to be distributed by Regional CCs?
JL: In the North we have already tried to speak to the major land owners or their agents. The land
agents for Casterton Fell said that if BCA decides caving is covered under CRoW, the land owners
will stick to their current line that it is not. They already have seen the QC?s opinion, know about
today?s meeting and have said that they will not be employing a QC to counter the QC?s opinion.
They would not make a statement in advance of the meeting making clear that any statement from
them will be reactive, based on the outcome of today?s meeting. The other northern land agents
have not replied to requests for a conversation.
