Move comes as campaigners call for wider access to land after court of appeal ruling on Dartmoor case says activity is lawful
Labour would extend the right to wild camp to all national parks if elected, the party has said following the restoration of the right on Dartmoor by the high court.
On Monday, the court of appeal ruled that wild camping on Dartmoor was lawful without landowner permission, overturning a high court ruling in favour of a landowner who wanted to ban the practice. Ruling on the appeal, Sir Geoffrey Vos, the master of the rolls, said wild camping counts as “open-air recreation” as allowed in the 1985 Dartmoor Commons Act.
