Amend the Caravan Sites & Control of Development Act 1960 & raise accountability
Caravan and Camping Associations benefit from exemption certificates & effectively do as they like. We want checks in place which will give locals a voice, protect their rural amenities & provide local authorities the power to have more control, especially when the area & its roads are unsuitable.
Local concerns about new certificated sites are disregarded by Camping & Caravanning Club, thereafter the Club is unaccountable. On one site they expanded from 5 to 80 recreational units, with one entrance & single-track access, with no planning control despite objection from all local authorities & MPs.
The Ministry’s response refers to an Article 4 Direction, which local Councils do not use.
Rural communities face years enduring dangerous effects of the increased volume of tourist traffic etc.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned about regulation of caravan parks, but it's not clear what changes you want to be made to existing rules.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
