The AGT have produced the attached leaflet to explain the statutory consultee review and to encourage support, which they have been giving out at events such as the Hampton Court Flower Show.
They are afraid that otherwise there is no substantial update on the government’s proposal to remove the Trust’s statutory consultee role. Last week they met at DCMS with the Heritage Minister, Baroness Twycross, and were encouraged by her interest, but the main driver, as you will know, is the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG). We are still waiting for news on the consultation timings, but it is looking increasingly likely that this will now be autumn.
