Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends Orders previously made by the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food which designated areas in Breckland and the Suffolk River Valleys as environmentally sensitive areas. The Order removes the requirement that land which is to revert to grassland or heathland in Breckland or the Suffolk River Valleys, or which is to be used for uncropped wildlife strips or conservation headlands in Breckland, should formerly have been cropped in rotation (articles 2 and 3).
