I thank the Minister of State for his answer. I will probably introduce a one-line Bill but I would be quite happy if the Government included it in some other Bill. I note that there is precedent. The period of time was previously extended by a similar one-line provision in a miscellaneous Bill a few years ago so it is a simple matter that would give us the space to do this kind of mapping of public rights of way while ensuring we keep the network of private easements and look at them in synergy. It could be a very useful process in the next couple of years. I look forward to engaging with the Minister of State on that matter.
