Paper Three - Casework Review

This document contains an update on the Cairngorms Local Outdoor Access Forum's (CLOAF) casework volumes and types from 2019 to 2022. The purpose of the document is to update members on the handling of all types of casework, including monthly breakdowns and a summary of key types by volume and to consider findings and any relevant issues arising. Casework is split 50:50 between two Outdoor Access Officers, with admin support available. Casework decreased in the six-month review period (Q1 and Q2) of 2021 but maintained an overall upward trend since 2019, amounting to a 16% increase. Notable cases include restriction of access to land at Dellmore, non-compliant signage at Carrbridge and Dalwhinnie rail crossing closure.
