Isn't most tree surgery just necessary? It's all about the extent of the
damage you have to inflict to achieve your aim (whatever that may be). I
would have thought that no works at all (to most tree) would be best practice?
Just a thought!

Hold on, it is not unauthorised works, but that which destroys the amenity of
the tree, so in theory do you need consent for works which are good practice
(as you have not breached the TPO)
4. Without prejudice to subsections (6) and (7) of section 198 (power to
make tree preservation orders) or subsection (1) of section 200 (tree
preservation orders: Forestry Commissioners), and subject to article 5, no
person shall
(a) cut down, top, lop, uproot, wilfully damage or wilfully destroy; or
(b) cause or permit the cutting down, topping, lopping, uprooting,
wilful damage or wilful destruction of,
any tree specified in Schedule 1 to this Order or comprised in a group of
trees or in a woodland so specified, except with the consent of the authority
and, where such consent is given subject to conditions, in accordance with
those conditions.
