There are people who have been living on boats for the past 20 or 30 years. If they were living on land, they would have rights to stay where they were and nothing could be done.

Does the same thing apply where somebody has been on the waterways for the last 20 or 30 years in the same location? What rights will they have if these by-laws come in?
