Is subject to call in?: No
This Definitive Map Modification Order remains
opposed therefore it must be referred to the Secretary of State. It
has been decided that the Authority will take a neutral stance
towards the confirmation of the Modification Order within its
submission to the Secretary of State.
The YDNPA investigated and sealed this Order
but no longer have responsibility to progress the Order. YDNPA do
not wish to contribute further to the processing of the Order. NYCC
is not entirely satisfied that the evidence submitted in support of
the application and the evidence subsequently uncovered by YDNPA,
is clear enough, or is sufficient, to outweigh the initial
presumption that the Definitive Map is correct in recording paths
05.70/39 and 05.71/3 as bridleways.
The only alternative options available were
either to support the confirmation of the Order or to oppose the
confirmation of the Order within the submission to the Secretary of
State. However, it was considered that the evidence was not
sufficiently clear for either of these approaches to be
taken.
