If you have a permit to access land in the common marine and coastal area that is described in Schedule 4, you can only use the permit in certain ways. You can use the permit on land that does not have a customary marine title order or agreement. You must also follow an access arrangement that you have agreed to in writing with the Minister and the appropriate Minister, or just the appropriate Minister, depending on what your permit is for.
