Land Reform (Scotland) 2003 Act
Last updated | 23/05/2008
I've heard about the Land Reform Act what is it?
On 9 February 2005 new legislation giving a statutory right of responsible non-motorised access came into force in Scotland. The Land Reform (Scotland) Act 2003 will make it easier for all of us to get out and enjoy the outdoors. However, the countryside is also home and a workplace to people and wildlife and it is important that we all understand our responsibilities and behave in a way which does not cause damage or annoyance to others. Advice on how you can behave responsibly, both as a land manager and as an access taker or user can be found by reading the
Scottish Outdoor Access Code.
