Dear Simon Hawkins

Thank you for your recent request for information under the Freedom of
Information Act 2000. The answer to your question is as follows:

No we don’t have a byelaw in place for flying UAV’s from Council land.

We also don’t have a policy specifically in place for the flying of UAV’s.
We have an event strategy which would take each request into consideration
for flying drones on their own merit. The general stance is we do not give
permission to fly drones from our land for personal use or enjoyment but
consider it for company or business purposes which normally would include
filming. An applicant would be required to fill in the events form
application and filming on Council’s land application form (both forms
attached). The filming from Council’s land document includes the
following:

Filming with Drones

If we are approached by a company requesting to drone film on our land,
they must be CAA licensed.

If they are licensed they should have a valid “Permissions for Aerial
Works” certificate. If the pilot is not licensed they will not be insured
or have public liability cover and they are not allowed to work/provide
commercial services.

The responsibility of any flight and its legalities rests with the drone
operator. Drone pilots need to check various factors including if they are
in restricted airspace before applying for permission.

No filming activity should take place until permissions have been granted
by all the relevant parties. The production company must ensure that all
those affected by filming have been consulted and informed of
arrangements.

We understand that drone flights are weather dependent and dates may need
to be changed, but early notification will allow agreement in principle.

I would also say no review has taken place on the document provided.

This response has been provided by Tim Braund (Regulatory Services),
Samantha Grisman (Environmental Services),

If you are dissatisfied with the handling of your request, you have the
right to ask for an internal review. Internal review requests should be
submitted within two months of the date of receipt of the response to your
original letter and should be addressed to: James McLaughlin, Director
of Corporate and Customer Services, Town Hall, Matlock Derbyshire DE4 3NN.

If you are not content with the outcome of the internal review, you have
the right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a
decision. The Information Commissioner can be contacted at: Information
Commissioner’s Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9
5AF.
