In last Thursday's parliamentary debate on access to nature, Labour confirmed they would introduce a Right to Roam Act for England if elected - and said that their policy was for a Scottish-style right of responsible access. Shadow Environment Minister Alex Sobel MP told the Commons: "We will introduce a Right to Roam Act, a new law allowing national parks to adopt the right to wild camp, as well as expanding public access to woodlands and waterways... Like in Scotland, Labour’s approach will be that our right to roam will offer access to high-quality green and blue spaces for the rest of Britain. We will replace the default of exclusion with a default of access".
