Root damage will not be allowed as a direct ground for complaint as
proof
needs expert witnesses and such disputes are beyond the scope of this
law.
The grower will not be able to claim that he needs a huge hedge to give
his
upstairs windows total privacy. There will be severe limits set on the
amount of privacy which can be claimed as of right, but if the grower
claims
that there is some special reason why he needs more than standard
privacy
his claims will be, at the least, considered.

I have a leylandii hedge which I keep trimmed to below 6ft. At the end
nearest the house, I have a fir which is tall, next to my window. Will
this be a problem?. None of my trees interfere with my neighbours' light.

I can see no reason whatever that either your one tree or your trimmed under
6 ft hedge should be a problem under this or any new law or adjustments to
it
