Proposals to simplify Tree Preservation Order paperwork has been announced by planning minister Bob Neill.
As part of the government’s drive to cut red tape, the proposal aims to consolidate the legal provisions currently contained in regulations and tree preservation orders (TPO’s) in England.
This move should save councils thousands in administration costs each year by using a shorter and easier to understand model order.
This is good news for homeowners and insurers alike as the new process should not only remove ambiguities but ultimately speed up the often extremely complex and lengthy process of appeals and hearings when dealing with Local Authorities and tree related subsidence.
A Met Office study on how climate change could affect the frequency of extreme droughts in the UK has found a range of possibilities — the majority of them showing such droughts will become more common.
For insurers, dry spells mean an increase in subsidence claim numbers.

The Met Office have reported that the UK has had the driest first 6 months of the year since 1929.
In anticipation of the predicted surge in claim numbers, The Independent report:
Despite the rainy weather many of us have had over the past week, this has been one of the driest summers in the past 50 years, and homeowners are warned this means the threat of subsidence – which could cause hundreds of thousands of pounds of damage to their properties – has increased.
