MILITARY LANDS ACT 1892 - SECT 14



14.(1) Where any land belonging to a Secretary of State or to a volunteer
corps is for the time being appropriated by or with the consent of a Secretary
of State for any military purpose, a Secretary of State may make byelaws for
regulating the use of the land for the purposes to which it is appropriated,
and for securing the public against danger arising from that use, with power
to prohibit all intrusion on the land and all obstruction of the use thereof.

Provided that no byelaws promulgated under this section shall authorise the
Secretary of State to take away or prejudicially affect any right of common.

(2) Where any such byelaws permit the public to use the land for any purpose
when not used for the military purpose to which it is appropriated, those
byelaws may also provide for the government of the land when so used by the
public, and the preservation of order and good conduct thereon, and for the
prevention of nuisances, obstructions, encampments, and encroachments thereon,
and for the prevention of any injury to the same, or to anything growing or
erected thereon, and for the prevention of anything interfering with the
orderly use thereof by the public for the purpose permitted by the byelaws.

(3) For the purposes of this section, "land belonging to a Secretary of State"
means land under the management of a Secretary of State, whether vested in Her
Majesty or in the Secretary of State, or in a person as trustee for Her
Majesty or the Secretary of State; and "land belonging to a volunteer corps"
means any land vested in that corps or in any person as trustee for that
corps.
