Question

To ask the Scottish Government whether the "14 days notice" to the occupier, as required by paragraph 10(2) of Schedule 4 of The Electricity Act 1989 to permit a person "authorised to enter upon any land" to do so "as of right", is a (a) general notice, (b) notice published or posted locally or (c) specific notice issued directly to each individual occupier.

The Electricity Act 1989 is legislation enacted by the UK Parliament. Interpretation of the requirements of paragraph 10(2) of Schedule 4 of The Electricity Act 1989 would be dependent on legal advice based on the circumstances of the individual case.
