240913Paper3 Seasonal Fire Management Byelaw Sept2024
This document contains a formal board paper from the Cairngorms National Park Authority (Park Authority) regarding a seasonal fire management byelaw. The Park Authority board agreed to develop this byelaw, which will be in effect from 1 April to 30 September each year. This paper outlines the wording for the byelaw and seeks the board's approval for a 12-week statutory consultation starting on 23 September 2024. Following the consultation, members will review feedback and submit the final wording to Scottish Ministers for approval, with a target implementation date of 1 June 2025. The byelaw aims to reduce fire risk by limiting or excluding barbecues and open fires in key areas of the National Park, but also includes provisions and definitions relating to relevant parties and scenarios.
