Default leylandii hedges for 'the chop'

In article , Michael
Berridge writes
The government are to add what was the high hedges bill to the current
antisocial behaviour bill going through Parliament. The bill will, in
effect, allow local councils to intervene in disputes over hedge
heights, and they will be allowed, if the case is proven, to cut them
down to a height of 2m. This is after a conservative MP talked the bill
out earlier. The Bill will, in fact, have all party backing.




Well I hope we don't have to cut our 7 foot hawthorn hedges down, will
the law apply to all hedges or only those that people complain about?
