520 _aQBD, 4 June 1996. Following a landowner's refusal to allow public access to a riverbank footpath on his land, E applied to the local authority (X) under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 s53 for an order modifying the survey map of the area to show the footpath as a public path. X rejected the application, concluding that the evidence was too weak to prove the existence of the path. E appealed to SoS Wales who held that there was no conclusive evidence and dismissed the appeal. E applied for judicial review and the question arose whether SoS Wales should determine the matter by public enquiry. "Held" SoS Wales had a duty to act fairly and that duty required a public enquiry to be held. Application allowed.
