Hi again,
I found the response from Surrey Council Council to my FOI. They seem to take a stricter view than other people have experienced from other government bodies. If we can get a few examples of this apparent contradiction in legal interpretation and perhaps OS to officially state their view, we might get Surrey and Kent moving forward...

Q3) Do any policies exist that prevent the council making the RoW data available under a permissive license (similar to OS Opendata)? Answer: Yes, as the Rights of Way data is governed by the Ordnance Survey copyright& licencing regulations, it cannot be supplied to third parties unless the third party has a licence to use the same Ordnance Survey products that the data was derived from. This licence must also cover the same geographical area that was used to generate the derived data.
