Explanatory note

Part II of the Military Lands Act 1892 (c.43) provides for the making of byelaws to regulate the use of land held for military purposes, and to secure the safety of the public where public use of that land is permitted. These byelaws regulate the area of land known as the Caversfield Service Family Accommodation. The site is split into two Controlled Areas for the purposes of the byelaws. Public access is permitted in the Controlled Areas when they are not closed to the public, except for areas that are enclosed or entry is stated to be prohibited or restricted. Public access is not permitted to land used for residential purposes. A copy of these byelaws may be inspected on the Ministry of Defence website—http://www.mod.uk/DefenceInternet/MicroSite/DIO/WhatWeDo/Byelaws Copies are displayed on signboards erected locally and may also be obtained from the Librarian, Defence Infrastructure Organisation, Kingston Road, Sutton Coldfield B75 7RL. By section 17(2) of the Military Lands Act 1892 any person who commits an offence against any byelaw made under the Act, is liable, on conviction before a court of summary jurisdiction, to a fine not exceeding level 2 on the standard scale. At the time of printing the maximum fine on level 2 is five hundred pounds (£500). Any person seeking a permission under byelaw 8(b) should apply in writing to the Byelaws Appointed Person, the RAF Commander, Building 200 Command Section, RAF Croughton, Brackley, Northants, NN13 5NQ.

What Parliament said about it

Hansard was searched for this instrument by name and returned nothing. That is the ordinary outcome: an instrument laid under the negative procedure is usually never debated, and becomes law without a word said about it in either House.

How Parliament handled it

Parliament's Statutory Instruments service records procedure from May 2017 onwards, and this instrument predates it. That is a limit of the source, not a statement that nothing happened.
