What advice it offers to members of the public when dealing with high hedge disputes.

The Scottish Government has recently had a very productive meeting with Scothedge, an organisation which represents many of those affected by this issue in Scotland, and which can be contacted via http://www.pentlandhedge.colwat.com/. We are now seeking to work with Scothedge and other parties to agree a way forward.
Services provided by Community Safety Partnerships “ such as mediation “ can be very useful in dealing with a range of neighbour disputes, including those involving high hedges. Members of the public may also find it useful to contact Citizens Advice Bureaux or, should they be seeking legal advice, to contact their own solicitor.
