» Policy Work

CLA's lobbying effort on behalf of our members is continuous. Members can access frequent updates on how the CLA is working for you, what the current issues are and how they are being addressed.

The role of the CLA as the organisation defending the interest of those who live and work in the countryside has never been more important.

Successful lobbying efforts require informative and credible data which the CLA produces through a range of surveys. The CLA are continuously seeking to compile factual responses to current issues that are of interest to our members, so help strengthen our lobbying powers by supporting our current surveys.

The CLA actively responds to national and regional consultations. Such papers are designed to provoke reaction; therefore feedback is most welcome from members. Our members’ contributions facilitate an accurate and authoritative formal response from the CLA. You can help shape national policies by shaping our responses.

The CLA is the authoritative voice for rural landowners and businesses which is evident through the diverse multitude of policy reports we produce. These politically influential reports are available to view by all members and non members.

The CLA actively seeks out relevant and up to date Public Appointment vacancies and encourages members to apply.
