- Abstract
The CRoW Act provides for public access on foot to certain types of land, amends the law relating to public rights of way, increases measures for the management and protection for Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and strengthens wildlife enforcement legislation, and provides for better management of Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Under Section 4 of the CRoW Act it states the following: It shall be the duty of Natural Resources Wales (formerly Countryside Council for Wales) to prepare, in respect of Wales, maps which together show; (a) all registered common land, and (b) all open country.
