This judgment is the first to examine the regime in the round, including: who must be given notice and how; whether notice runs with the land; the level of detail required in a notice; the meaning of "reasonable time" for entry; human rights considerations; and data protection.
Emyr Jones and Claire Nevin, who acted for the parties in the litigation, will summarise the judgment.
