The National Tree Safety Group produced a draft guidance document "Bringing Common Sense to Tree Management" and invited comments from the industry regarding this document. Responses were collated via an online survey, it was not possible to submit comments in any other format.
The consultation ran from 21 May to 21 June 2010.
This Draft Consultation document has now been superceded as the National Tree Safety Group's new guidance "Common sense management of trees" was released on the 5th December 2011. If you would like to order a hardcopy of the guidance or download a free pdf of it or the supplementary guidance for estates, smallholdings and domestic house owners please go to:

In January 2012 a Basecamp facility will be set up for users of this guidance to submit feedback to the National Tree Safety Group.
