Sounds fine in principle.
1. Are these orders placed in a central database? My understanding was
each local authority only passed on the data (to OS) once added to the
definitive map. My LA publishes PPOs & DMMOs on their website. If all
LAs do the same could the information be collated from these?
2. What does OSMUK intended to do with the documents once it's obtained it?
3. If there is one, do all LAs issue under the same license?

There's been a suggestion that OSMUK lobbiesfor the statutory right to
receive copies of the legal orders which change Public Rights of Way
as it can be slow for any official changes to make their way onto the
Definitive Map and then be picked up by mappers. There is already
legislation that allows various organisations the right to receive
copies of the legal orders that effect changes to Public Rights of
Way. The list is contained in Schedule 6 of the Wildlife and
Countryside (Definitive Maps and Statements) Regulations 1993:
http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/1993/12/schedule/6/made
These are:
Auto-Cycle Union
British Horse Society
Byways and Bridleways Trust, Open Spaces Society
Ramblers Association
British Driving Society
Cyclists Touring Club
Peak and Northern Footpaths Society
Chiltern Society
Welsh Trail Riders' Association
The Board has discussed this and agreed we should do it. I've
volunteered to lead this activity. We think that we would need to
convince the relevant Secretary of State that it was a good idea, and
get them to amend/re-issue the Statutory Instrument linked above that
includes the list. From the introductory text, it looks like it's
jointly the Secretaries of State for the Environment and Wales.
My thinking on how we should approach this is first to contact each of
the organisations who are already on the list and ask
1. Were they added at the time the legislation was passed or
subsequently?
2. If subsequently, do they know the procedure?
3. How is the data provided to them?
4. What licence terms does it have?
5. If it's open data would they be willing to share it with us until
we get on the list?
If anybody has any knowledge or experience of this legislation or any
contacts at these organisations or any other ideas on how to approach
this campaign we'd love to know either here or on the OSMUK Loomio
