This case involves the use of and access to a turbary right over a bog plot. The position is that the person named in the details supplied, has applied to my Department, as successor to the Land Commission for a formal right of turbary over a plot owned by a third party. The person named is in dispute with the fee simple owner of the land, over which the right will be exercised. My Inspector has proposed a solution, which involves my Department selling the right of turbary over part of the plot to the person named and the right of turbary over the remainder of the plot to the fee simple owner of both plots. Access to the plot to be used by the person named has still to be provided for and the Survey and Legal Services sections of my Department are attempting to find an acceptable solution to this problem, which will require the co-operation of the parties involved.
