• "you" and "yours" refersto the homeowner or other occupier of a park home. "we" and "our" refers to the parkowner. None of these rules are to have retrospective effect. Accordingly:

• they are to apply only from the date on which they take effect, which is 14

December 2014; and

• No occupier who is in occupation on that date will be treated as being in breach due to circumstances which were in existence on that date and which would not have been in breach of the rules in existence before that date.

These rules also apply to the park owner and any employees (for as long as they may live on the park), with the exception to the following rules 1,16,25 & 28.
