HC Deb 05 December 1966 vol 737 c210W
Mr. Derek Page

asked the Minister of Land and Natural Resources what steps he is taking to draw the attention of common rights holders to the necessity of registering those rights and the dangers of losing them if they fail to do so.

Mr. Willey

Over a quarter of a million copies of a free booklet have been sent out through local authorities, including parish councils, and main post offices. 40,000 posters have been issued.

The start of registration on 2nd January 1967 has recently been advertised by all registration authorities in the local press.

Valuable help in publicity has been given by the Commons, Open Spaces and Footpaths Preservation Society, the National Farmers' Union and other bodies.
