Commons Bill [HL]

Further to what the noble Lord, Lord Williams, said, it would be inconceivable that the owner of a common would enter into an agreement with a trial club to come on to the common without consulting the graziers. If that trial club did anything to impede the grazing activities on the common, that would be a breach of the law. I fully understand the noble Lord’s point but I do not think that it is a real problem in practice.
