Default Planning permission for gardens?

While waiting for my wife to shop I browsed the headlines of various
daily papers this morning. One of them,I never noticed which, claimed
the dear old government are planning to bring in rules about what we
can do with our gardens. It seems that this is an attempt to reduce
waste production, mainly grass clippings! What a racket this recycling
business is becoming. We spent energy to clean bottles, glasses etc for
recycling then is is all dumped together and shipped to India it seems,
where it is mainly dumped in landfill!


The only example of this, as far as I remember, is the proposed planning
permission which could be required to _pave over_ gardens.

The amount of flooding which has occurred over the last few years is
probably not helped by covering the land with concrete!
