Members may wish to note the following statement from TVP The concern arises out of the use of the term "Public Open Spaces" in the Statutory Instrument No.350 and “Open Spaces” in the recent Government Recovery Strategy document which is guidance not law, unlike the S I, which is law. We understand that NPCC, were consulted and guidance from them is expected to go out soon to all forces. We also await to hear from the the Under Secretary, Nigel Huddleston at DMCS shortly, in response to the BSSC Chairman’s letter. We will report further news as soon as available.
