Abstract

At the end of 2004, Cabinet agreed to a policy on walking access over privately owned land. It endorsed the view that this access can be provided at near-zero cost to landowners. The Cabinet paper notes that 'the walking access policy in not intended to interfere with the essential elements of a landholder's title to the land. Landholders will continue to retain their rights to the occupation and use of the land'. Officials are still working on policy relating to the need (or absence of need) for compensation to private owners of land over which the access is provided. Lewis Evans and Neil Quigley offer a contribution to their deliberations and an assessment of the costs of the policy.
