Remediation of unauthorised quarries and unauthorised peat extraction is very important in terms of environmental damage. It can be very difficult to remediate depending on the level of damage done. The concern is about a provision in the Bill that would prevent remedial action being required under section 130 if section 130(8) applies to it. Why have this prohibition? Why not at least have discretion?
