"Section 86 of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000 (the 2000 Act) allows the Secretary of State to create a Conservation Board for an AONB by means of a Statutory Instrument called an Establishment Order. This details, amongst other matters, what functions an AONB’s constituent local authorities wish the Board to have and the membership of that Board. The first Conservation Boards in England were established for the Chilterns and Cotswolds AONBs in December 2004."
