Allow Camping on Farmland for 56 days a year under permitted development

We ask the Government to allow camping on agricultural land for 56 days instead of the current 28 days permitted. Camping is a great way to holiday in the UK. It is low cost, enables interaction with nature, and is very low carbon compared to other holiday types.

The present General Permitted Development Orders don't even allow many campsites to open for the duration of the school summer holidays. A longer open period will allow many more people to enjoy holidaying in the UK, will increase the viability of temporary campsites, and should significantly reduce holiday carbon emissions.
