The legal requirement
The Commons Act 2006 provides the framework for registering and protecting common land and town or village greens in England and Wales. When an application is made to the commons registration authority, the applicant must advertise the application in a local newspaper.
This requirement ensures that local residents and other interested parties have the opportunity to make representations or objections before the registration authority makes its decision.
